Akshay
Kumar
says
working
in
the
Rajinikanth-starrer
2.0
was
a
learning
experience
for
him
as
he
realised
the
south
industry
is
not
only
more
punctual
but
also
more
professional
than
Bollywood.
The
actor
plays
the
villain,
Dr
Richard,
in
the
film
which
is
a
sequel
to
Shankar's
blockbuster,
Enthiran.
"Technologically,
South
is
more
advanced
than
us.
They
are
more
professional
than
us.
If
the
shoot
time
is
7.30,
the
shooting
will
start
sharp
on
time.
Here,
7.30
means
you
can
come
by
9.30.
Their
superstars
arrive
on
time
on
set,"
Akshay
said
in
a
group
interview.
The
actor
believes
newcomers
should
do
at
least
five
films
down
south
before
coming
to
Bollywood
as
time
is
not
a
luxury
one
can
afford
in
southern
cinema.
"You
learn
a
lot.
I
sometimes
feel
a
newcomer
should
do
five
films
there
and
then
come
here.
He
or
she
will
learn
a
lot.
In
a
day,
they
take
30-40
shots.
Here
we
manage
around
12-13
shots...
They
don't
take
other
people
for
granted.
They
value
other
people's
time,"
he
said.
The
actor
says
he
was
bowled
over
by
the
humility
of
megastar
Rajinikanth
when
he
first
met
him.
"We
used
to
talk
in
Marathi.
He
is
a
Maharashtrian
and
I
also
know
the
language.
He
is
a
great
man.
It's
amazing
how
you
give
him
one
dialogue
and
he
changes
it
into
an
epic
dialogue.
He
puts
entertainment
in
every
line,"
he
said.
Recently,
Rajinikanth
had
said
that
2.0
will
belong
to
Akshay
but
the
Padman
star
consider
himself
to
be
the
'Amrish
Puri' of
the
action-fantasy
genre.
"He
(Rajinikanth)
is
just
being
humble.
It's
very
much
his
film
because
the
title
is
'2.0'.
I
can't
be
that.
He
is
'2.0'.
he
is
just
being
kind
and
nice
to
me.
I
respect
him
for
that.
It's
very
much
his
film.
I
am
the
Amrish
Puri
of
the
film," he
quipped.
2.0
is
scheduled
to
release
tomorrow
(November
29,
2018).
