Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, who is making his Tamil cinema debut with Rajinikanth-starrer sci-fi action-thriller "2.o", will be seen playing an eccentric scientist in the film, which is currently on the floors. "Akshay plays scientist Richard who, after an experiment goes wrong, turns crazy and loses his appearance. Akshay has undergone complete makeover for his role," a source from the film's unit told reporters. On Wednesday, photographs of Akshay's scientist avatar were leaked online, much to the astonishment of the makers.
