Akshay’s last venture with 2.0, co-starring Rajinikanth, was one of the biggest movies ever made in Indian cinema because of its massive budget which was around Rs 550 crore. As per some reports, the science fiction film has already crossed Rs 700 crore mark in just two weeks beating Baahubali and Aamir Khan’s Dangal. The movie became the first ever Kollywood flick to achieve such box office collection worldwide. Even the Hindi version of the film has garnered Rs 177.75 crore in India, which is quite impressive.
