Rajinikanth Akshay Kumar starrer 2.0 clocks it at 2 hours 28 minutes

22 Nov 2018

The excited and anxious team behind Shankars long-awaited opus featuring Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar in a confrontational combat, has just finished editing the footage. And we are happy to announce that the playing time for the sequel to the 2010 hit is precisely 2 hours and 28 minutes. This is 33 minutes shorter than what Robot and its Tamil version Enthiran was in 2010. Says a member of the technical team, Though we shot footage that could go into a 5-hour film, we consciously decided to keep the length in check this time. While the first film was over 3 hours long, this time weve kept the running-time to under 2 and a half hours. It was felt by the entire team that lengthier films tend to exhaust audiences. The most recent case in point being Thugs Of Hindostan.A technical member of the team avers, I strongly believe the length was a major culprit in Thugs Of Hindostan.If they had restricted the action to just over two hours, I strongly believe it would have performed a lot better. We dont want to make the same mistake. Also Read: 2.0 Akshay Kumars speech in Tamil left Rajinikanth surprised
