Chitti is coming to India

Chitti, the robot used in Shankar's film Robot, is coming to India. Its makers are keen to have the android here for the promotions of the Rajnikant-Aishwarya Rai film.

Though the rent of bringing it to India costs a whopper running into crores the makers are determined. The robot is in the Stan Winston Studio in California.

Says Shankar, "Yes, we are planning to fly down the android to India for our promotional activities." Chitti can act, speak, dance, give interviews. What more do you need for promotions?

Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai in 'Enthiran - The Robot'

One of the most eagerly awaited films of this year is the Rajinikanth - Aishwarya Rai starrer Endhiran - The Robot. The film, a trilingual (Tamil, Telugu and Hindi), is directed by one of the hottest directors down South- Shankar.

Enthiran - The Robot is touted as one of the most expensive films with a heavy dose of special effects. No wonder then that the film has been in the making for quite some time now. However, there is good news for fans who have been eagerly awaiting this film. The music of the film composed by none other than Oscar winner A. R. Rahman is all set to release on 31 July. In fact a grand music release function has been planned in Malaysia where the entire cast and crew is expected.

One of the highlights of this film is that Rajinikanth would be seen without his famed moustache in most parts thereby making him look much younger. The last time director Shankar and actor Rajinikanth came together they created magic with Sivaji-The Boss. Hope that Enthiran - The Robot manages to live up to its hype and breaks all Box Office records when it releases later this year.
