The Super Star Rajnikanth’s New Avataram in Robot


The Super Star Rajnikanth’s New Avataram in Robot
In case you're wondering who or what this thing is, that's Rajnikanth in a still from his next big budget movie, 'Robot'.

Robot, or 'Endhiran' as is the movie's name in Tamil has Rajnikanth in a brand new Desi-Nazi sort of look... and as you've guessed it, he plays a Robot.

Robot will the the most expensive film made in India with a titanic budget of 120 crores!! It will battle against Kamal Haasan's film upcoming film 'Marmayogi'. After the thundering success of Shivaji: The Boss, 'Robot' re teams superstar Rajnikanth and ace director S.Shanker.

The money talks don't end there... composer A.R Rahman who has been roped in for 'Robot' becomes the most expensive musician of India and star Aishwarya Rai who has been offered a whopping 6 Crores to play the female lead has become the highest paid Bollywood actress.

And where has this movie been shot? In Vienna, Rio de Janeiro, and Vietnam...among other places.

And here's a tasty bit of information - late last year, Shahrukh Khan had earlier signed up for the movie. If it weren't for King Khan's opinions about the movie's script being 'half baked' and 'dull', Shahrukh would've starred and produced the movie.

Here's to Rajnikanth and his undeniable star power. The man's got style. We can't hardly wait for Robot to release. Below is one of Robot's promotional posters we happened to see in Chennai.
