Mirror (October 10) had earlier reported that the makers of Rajinikanth’s upcoming film, Annaatthe, had decided to push forward the final schedule at the last minute keeping in mind the safety of the veteran actor during the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. They were to start shooting in Hyderabad from October 23 and work on a massive set had started at Ramoji Film City. Now, almost two months later, they have resumed shooting with a 45-day schedule at the same location. Along with Rajinikanth, Nayanthara who plays his wife and Keerthy Suresh, his sister, will be filming the post interval scenes. “It will be an intense final leg with lots of action and drama. The entire first half is already in the cans,” revealed a source close to the development.
While the producers of this Siva directorial did suffer some monetary losses due to the delay, they are confident that Rajini’s return to the screen after a year-and-a-half will bring in the crowds. Meanwhile, apart from the government prescribed SoPs, the producers have gone for a complete indoor schedule with strict bio-bubble protocols. Shooting will be over by January and they are targeting an April 2021 release around the Tamil New Year.
On December 12, Rajini brought in his 70th birthday in Chennai, following which he flew to Hyderabad to resume work. He is expected to announce his full-time entry into politics on December 31. His birthday cake read, “Now or Never”.

Akshay Kumar and Rajinikanth will wrap up 2.0 soon. The film may have its release date pushed from this year to next (January 2018), but the makers have planned an interesting marketing strategy for the futuristic film.
No Diwali release
According to an insider, “The film was meant to release during Diwali this year, but they had to push it to next year because of the extensive VFX. But now, the team will unveil the first teaser promo and reveal the look of 2.0 on Diwali. Akshay and Rajini want this to be a gift to their fans, who are disappointed by the film’s delay.”
Gifting the trailer
There’ll also be a full-fledged trailer soon after. “The trailer will be launched amid huge fanfare on Rajinikanth’s birthday (December 12). Rajini is worshipped down South and his films are celebrated like festivals. That’s why director Shankar wants to give all Thalaiva’s fans a gift.”
Rajinikanth calls off birthday celebrations due to floods in Chennai

'Enthiran' sequel, supposed to be announced on December 12, has been postponed indefinitely

With flood-ravaged Chennai only now beginning to limp towards normalcy, Tamil superstar Rajinikanth, who turns 65 on December 12, has cancelled plans to celebrate his birthday.
The superstar, whose legions of fans mark his big day every year with much pomp and show, urged them on Tuesday to refrain from doing so this year. He suggested that they help out in relief work instead.
The Enthiran actor had earlier met with Chief Minister, J Jayalalithaa, to hand over a cheque of Rs 10 crore towards the Chief Minister's Relief Fund for flood victims after the actor and several of his Kollywood counterparts recently came under fire for not coming forward to help.
Word is, Rajini fans are already in the midst of relief work in flood-hit areas. They have cancelled all the programmes planned for the superstar's birthday.
It is believed that Rajinikanth, who is currently shooting for his next Tamil film, Kabali, in which he will be seen in the role of a gangster, had saved the date for the official announcement of his film, Enthiran 2 (Robot 2).
The film was to kick start with a pooja on the occasion. However, the announcement has now been deferred indefinitely.
