Akshay Kumar is reportedly doing Robot 2. According to news reports, the film has only become bigger with Rajinikanth, Shankar and A.R. Rahman already on board for the sequel. Now, with Akshay stepping in, there is more pan-India appeal.
Although details are still awaited, the film could be a Tamil-Hindi bilingual. If this happens, it will make Robot 2 even bigger as an all-India product, with greater reach in overseas as well.
