The moment one mention of the word Robot, the first thing that comes to mind is that of gadgets and gizmos. But the South India based ace director Shankar has vowed to change it all, for he is making a film with the same name and stars none other than…hold your breath… South superstar Rajnikanth and Bollywood top actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan! Ok! you can breathe now.
Now it can be told. The star price war was has escalated to an all time high. With Aishwarya Rai carrying home a pay packet of Rs 4 Crores for her proposed stint as Rajnikanth’s leading lady in Robot, the lady has now become the highest paid actress of Indian cinema.
As for her astronomical fee for Robot a source close to the project says, “It is no surprise that Asihwarya is getting 4 crores. It is still chicken feed compared with what Rajnikanth gets paid. He takes home Rs 15 crores plus fifty percent of his movie’s profits. But still he can not make a movie commercially viable outside the Tamilian belt on his own. With Aishwarya in Robot it looks like an attractive non regional movie”
