For
many
years
now,
Tamil
moviegoers
have
dreamt
of
watching
an
Ajith
Kumar-starrer
coupled
with
the
directorial
skills
of
Shankar,
one
of
Kollywood's
most
successful
film-makers.
In
fact,
a
few
years
ago,
speculations
indicating
Shankar's
idea
of
roping
in
Thala
Ajith
for
Indian
2,
were
widespread.
Unfortunately,
that
particular
scoop
remained
a
rumour.
Project
To
Commence
Next
Year?
Since
both
Shankar
and
Ajith
are
busy
with
their
respective
projects,
the
project,
if
materializes,
will
most
likely
commence
by
the
end
of
next
year.
AM
Rathnam
To
Bankroll
The
Project?
Earlier,
Shankar
had
said
that
he
would
love
to
direct
a
movie
for
producer
AM
Rathnam
with
Ajith
in
the
lead.
Looks
like
the
time
has
finally
arrived
for
Shankar
to
helm
that
particular
film.
2.o
Updates
Meanwhile,
over
65
percent
of
2.o
is
said
to
have
been
shot
already.
Makers
have
hinted
that
the
film
is
getting
ready
to
hit
the
screens
for
Diwali
2017.
Magic
On
The
Sets
In
an
attempt
to
reduce
the
workload
during
post
production,
the
team
of
2.o
is
taking
care
of
the
CG
works
right
after
filming
each
and
every
scene,
it
is
said.
New
Schedule
At
EVP
World?
According
to
a
report,
the
new
shooting
schedule
of
2.o
will
begin
at
the EVP
amusement
park
in
the
outskirts
of
Chennai.
Huge
sets
are
reportedly
erected
at
the
Chennai-Bangalore
National
Highway.
Huge
Anticipation
With
every
passing
day,
anticipation
for
the
movie
is
rising
constantly
among
fans
and
movie
buffs.
With
Kabali
achieving
enormous
feat
at
the
box
office,
all
eyes
are
now
on
Shankar's
2.o.
But
now,
a
reliable
source
has
hinted
that
Shankar
might
team
up
with
the
Mankatha
star,
after
the
completion
of
superstar
Rajinikanth's
2.o.
What
more,
it
is
also
said
that
the
Anniyan
film-maker
has
written
a
powerful
action-oriented
script
and
that
talks
are
on
to
bring
Ajith
on
board
the
project
as
Shankar
feels
the
star
actor
would
be
an
ideal
choice
to
play
the
character
designed
by
him.
Meanwhile,
Ajith
is
currently
shooting
for
Siva's
upcoming
film,
which
is
being
bankrolled
by
Sathya
Jyothi
Films.
The
movie
also
stars
Kajal
Aggarwal
and
Akshara
Haasan
in
key
roles.
Shankar,
on
the
other
hand,
is
busy
filming
India's
costliest
film
ever
made.
2.o
a
science-fiction
thriller
is
being
made
at
a
lavish
budget
of
350
Crore
rupees.
It
is
being
bankrolled
by
