What do you get when you cross man, machine and mohabbat? This is the basic concept that ‘Robot’ relies on. The flick entails the story of a scientist and his hard-earned robot, both played by Rajnikant himself. Scientist Dr. Vaseegaran has created an andro humanoid robot named ‘Chitti’, with all the features of a typical human being: dancing, singing, fighting and resistance to water and fire. A sure-shot challenge to the real human being indeed! But what happens when this artificially intelligent Chitti, initially created to help human beings and contribute towards the country’s development, starts developing a soft corner for Sana (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan)? This is where Dr. Vasu faces the obstacles of utilizing Chitti for the main purpose so created.
Will Dr. Vasu be able to re-transform Chitti back into the exceptionally sharp-memorized robot? Or will he have to fight back his own creation to save himself? With the trailers on-air already creating waves about the success of the movie, director S. Shankar and Rajnikanth can only keep their fingers crossed. Ash fans will get to see their talented actor in a hot and beautiful new avatar. Shot across different parts of the world, namely, United States, Switzerland, South Africa and Peru.
