2.0 is a 2018 Indian Tamil-language science fantasy action film directed by Shankar, who co-wrote it with B. Jeyamohan and Madhan Karky, and produced by Subaskaran under Lyca Productions. The second installment in the Enthiran film series and a sequel to Enthiran (2010), it stars Rajinikanth in a triple role as Vaseegaran, Chitti the Robot and Kutti, alongside Akshay Kumar as the vengeful Pakshi Rajan and Amy Jackson, with a soundtrack composed by A. R. Rahman. The film follows the conflict between Chitti, a once-dismantled humanoid robot, and Pakshi Rajan, an avian human seeking vengeance on cell phone users to stop the deaths of birds from phone radiation.

Is the idea that phone towers kill birds, which drives the plot of 2.0, scientifically accurate?
The bird and phone tower premise was criticised by the Audubon Society and by Indian scientists and wildlife experts as misinformation.
No. The film's central idea, that radiation from mobile phone towers is killing birds, drew scientific criticism after release. The Audubon Society censured the film for spreading misinformation about the impact of mobile phone towers on birds, and Indian scientists and wildlife experts also called the idea a conspiracy theory. The villain Pakshi Rajan's grievance is therefore a dramatic premise, not an established finding.
