New Delhi: Although it left many of us a little disappointed in the beginning that we will no longer be seeing Hollywood muscle man Arnold Schwarzenegger in a desi film, it is no less exciting to know that none other than Bollywood action-comedy master Akshay Kumar has replaced him!

Yes, Akki will be donning the villain's hat for Rajinikanth's upcoming film 'Robot 2'.

'Robot 2' is a sequel to 2010 superhit 'Robot' – which starred Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Akki took to Twitter to share the good news. Check it here:

Although we are pretty used to watching Akki in both comedy and action flicks in equal share, this would probably the first time the actor will be shown in a negative character.

The year 2015 had almost been a roller coaster ride for the actor for his many films that released and we can't wait to see what more the actor has to offer.
