Robot's Success at BO!

The Aishwarya Rai Bachchan - Rajnikant starrer Robot (Endhiran) which was released on 1st October, alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra's Anjaana Anjaani, is said to have given the boot not only to the latter youthful and much awaited venture (which has also done fairly well for itself), but has also made an independent record of its own at BO, in its opening week.
Grossing a whopping 117 Crores INR, it has broken the record set by Eid time release Dabangg (starring Salman Khan and Sonakshi Sinha) which had grossed 82 Crores in it's first week.

Although success in the South for its regional release Endhiran had been more than expected, the extreme commercial profit made with the Bollywood version Robot is a cause of celebration for cast and crew alike.

Female protagonist Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who's Ratnam directorial Raavan opposite hubby Abhishek had fared dismally at BO earlier this year, now stands tall with a mega-hit in her kitty, and two upcoming releases to look forward to - Guzaarish (with Hrithk Roshan) and Action Replayy (with Akshay Kumar).
