Robot, the 140 crore project produced by London-based Aingaran Films International (P) Ltd., would get a Tamil title soon. As Superstar Rajnikanth had announced earlier, the science fiction movie directed by Shankar, will be named after a Tamil title. The latest news is that it would be renamed as Enthiram: the Robot, resembling Sivaji: The Boss.
The film, arguably the first ever full fledged sci-fi film in Tamil, is said to be based on novels titled 'En Iniya Iyanthira' and 'Jeeno', written by late Sujatha, a outstanding popular writer. It is learnt that 'Eyanthira' and 'Eyanthiran' were earlier considered and the final choice fell on the title Enthiram - The Robot.
Three photo-shoots have been held to promote the film, including one that was shot in Hollywood in U.S. last week. The shooting is expected to kick off in Brazil from Saturday, the 7th of September.
Shankar's team is already in Brazil to oversee the arrangements made. Shankar, Rajnikanth and other actors and crew members are expected to leave for Brazil on 5th while Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan, the heroine, is expected to land in Brazil on 7th.
