Cyclone Vardah has damaged Rajinikant's 2.O sets and upset the shooting schedule. The crew was planning to shoot in an IT park in the city but the strong winds blew away the plans. A source said, “The team had erected a set at a popular IT park in Ambattur where several films have been shot before. An office of the Artificial Intelligence Research Centre was created there. Even a military vehicle was seen near by. The shooting took place as per schedule on Sunday, but the crew had to quickly wrap and run on Monday when the wind picked up speed. The storm hit the shooting spot, leaving the set partially destroyed. This has forced the team to put a halt to the shooting mid way.”
The team tried hard to save the sets but it got partially destroyed due to the rain and wind. The crew of 2.O is now trying to reconstruct the sets and finish the scenes. Directed by Shankar, 2.O is the sequel to Enthiran. It stars Rajinikanth, Amy Jackson and Akshay Kumar in pivotal roles. The film is supposed to be release in Diwali next year.
