To be out

The movie with the highest budget in the history of Indian cinema, Robot has traveled over Europe and Vellore and is currently shooting in the valleys of Kulu and Manali. Robot has a speculated budget of Rs. 165 crore which stars Rajni Kanth and Aishwarya Rai as the lead pair. The film is being directed by Shankar. This film will be released simultaneously in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu and thus the unit believes that they can get back the investment.

This movie makes Aishwarya Rai, the highest paid actress in the country. She was paid a whopping amount of Rs. 6 crore for this movie. There are many other ‘costly’ embellishments in this movie which shoot up the budget. There was a romantic scene between the lead pair that was to be shot in a car and so Shankar ordered for a new Mercedes Benz which costed Rs. 1 crore, just for the sake of this single scene. Well, if that is the way you wanna shoot the film, Rs. 165 crore is a believable budget.
