Akshay Kumar on turning negative for ‘2.0’

Akshay Kumar has had a hugely successful run recently at the box office with a number of hit movies and being named National Award winner for his portrayal in ‘Rustom’ (2016).

The actor is gearing up to play a negative character in the sci-fi thriller ‘2.0’, which also stars Rajinikanth. Asked about what made him choose a role like this, Kumar told BollywoodLife, “The script, Shankar sir, Rajini sir- the whole combination. And I always wanted to work in South. Heard so much about the professionalism. It’s great to be a part of this kind of a film. It’s been long since I have done a negative role. I played a negative role long back, in a film called Ajnabee. And that’s why I did it.”

Kumar also opened up about what makes him select a script, he said, “I choose a role very fast. I just listen to it (script). I don’t have ten people of my company. I just look at it, feel good…good feeling comes, and I choose it. That’s it.”

‘2.0’ releases in January 2018.
