ROBOT- Hindi(Dubbed from original version- Tamil)


Title: Robot
Genre: Sci-fi/ Love
Cast: Rajnikanth, Aishwarya Rai Bacchan, Danny Danzongpa.
Director: Shankar
Music: A R Rahman
Rating: 2/5

Review: Robot, the costliest film made in India ever with the team consisting of Creame of the Industry like Rajni n Aish in the cast, Shankar and Rahman in the Crew was released on 1st of October year 2010.
The financial returns at the box office is reflecting the commercial success of the film worldwide.

Story: Dr. Vaseegaran(a scientist, Rajni) designs and develops a worlds most efficient humanoid robot that is 100 times powerful than a single human being for the Indian Army and names it 'Chitti'. Sana(Aishwarya), the girlfriend of Vaseegaran is a medico in the same city seeks some help from Chitti.The chief of AIRD, Dr. Bohra(Danny) rejects the patents for Chitti claiming that it is just a humanoid without feelings and could be dangerous in the society. Vasee incorporates the feelings for Chitti for AIRD approval, meanwhile Chitti falls in love with Sana. Vasee again fails at the Indian Army's test with Chitti and in his frustration Vasee destroys Chitti.
Dr.Bohra, uses the damaged Chitti and takes its neural schema to sell the robots for terrorist activities. He repairs Chitti, adds an extra chip to Chitti which leads to destruction. Chitti for possessing Sana uses the weapon of destruction. The rest is just Vasee's efforts of destroying Chitti.

Strengths: The credit for such an outlook of the film completely goes to the team of animators, the cinematography by Ratnavel was up to the mark , songs composed by Rahman are good and the background score though not captivating, is good enough confining to the pace of the film.

Weakness: The story line is very weak since a robot understanding human emotions and reacting in a similar way is hypothetical and most of the scenes incorporated in the film have nothing to do with the story which makes audiance feel bored. The film would have been much better if confined for a 90mins- 110mins run.

Overall, Rajni as both Vaseegaran and Chitti was looking new with his new style in the film with his performance being commendable, Aish was looking very gorgeous with a good performance.The first half of the film consists of a few jokes, with a plot leading to the main story of the film that starts in the second half after Chitti falling in love with Sana.

Shankar being an exceptional director with the blockbusters like Bharateeyudu, Aparichitudu, etc.... is not uo tp his mark with ROBOT.
