A Character is described a scientist whose “experiments goes wrong and loses his appearance”, Amy Jackson, Sudhanshu Pandey as Son of Dr. Bohra and Adil Hussain. The commercial success of Enthiran (2010) prompted the makers of the film to immediately consider making a sequel and by March 2011, the original film's cinematographer, Rathnavelu revealed that initial pre-production work on a second part had begun with the same technical team. S. Shankar, the director of Enthiran, moved on to work on Nanban (2012) and I (2015) and plans to reunite with the same producers as the original was dropped, with Shankar revealing that he was unsure if the film "will happen at all" during an interview in 2014 While finishing the production of I, Shankar drafted the scripts of three more feature films, including that of a sequel to Enthiran.

Vogt would design special costumes. Stunt choreographer Kenny Bates and visual effects specialists John Hughes and Walt Jones were also signed to work on the film.In June 2016, the film's sound engineer ResulPookutty revealed during the midst of production that the film will not serve as a sequel to Enthiran, rather a spiritual successor.

Akshay Kumar began shooting for the film in Chennai at the beginning of March 2016 and took part in a schedule held at the EVP Film City studio in Chennai. A set of a mobile phone store was erected at the location, while night scenes involving robotic equipment and military tanks were also canned. The team subsequently moved to Delhi to hold a forty five day schedule, continuing on from the same scenes with military tanks that were shot in Chennai.[52] Subsequently, the team filmed sequences at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium depicting an Indian Super League match between Chennaiyin FC and Mumbai City FC, with hundreds of junior artistes recruited to act as supporters. Actors Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan visited the film's set at the stadium with the media reporting that the pair were set to make cameo appearances, though the claim was later denied by the team. Rajinikanth then joined the team in Delhi at the end of March to continue shooting for the project, with the climax sequences being filmed. Action scenes involving robotic equipment was filmed throughout early April in Delhi, with cinematographer Nirav Shah using helicams to capture sequences involving the three lead actors. Titled 2.0, the film consequently began its first schedule with shooting held on 16 December 2015. The film is schedule to release in theaters in 2017.
