Paparazzi doesn't let Rajini & Ash alone!

The Rajinikanth starrer Endhiran is progressing very well amidst mounting expectations. Ever since the film commenced, the entire Indian film industry is keen watching the developments. To make matters even interesting, Endhiran has Aishwarya Rai Bachchan starring opposite the Superstar.

Only recently, the production rights of this film were purchased by Sun Pictures from the original producers Eros International and Ayngaran. Being a mega budget film, the producers and director Shankar wanted every bit of privacy during the film shoot and they also took extra care to ensure the photos from the shooting are not leaked out. But with the latest technology rearing its ugly head we saw a few of the photos shot during the Endhiran shooting in Peru and Goa find its way to the internet. To top all this, the local paparazzi in Vellore have shot a few stills while the film unit was busy shooting at the Vellore Institute of Technology. Shankar naturally is fuming over this and is now said to working out a new strategy to prevent such things in future.

Yogi B sings for 'Endhiran'

Singer Yogi B who has made his presence felt in the Tamil film industry with some spectacular songs, has been roped in to sing a song for the mammoth production 'Endhiran' that stars superstar Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. A. R. Rahman who is the music director of the film has confirmed to Indiaglitz that Yogi B has indeed sung a song for the film. Moreover, he added that the Malaysian singer was in his studio a while back with regards to Endhiran. A. R. Rahman was working for the Aamir Khan starrer 'Ghajini' at that time. Though Yogi B was there was Endhiran, his services were used for a background score 'Run' that features in 'Ghajini'. Everything about 'Endhiran' is shrouded with complete secrecy as is the case with every Shankar film. 'Endhiran' produced by Sun Pictures will be ready for release in 2010.

Shankar is Genius

Shanker, the maker of a huge film ENDHIRAN on terms of budget, is said to be thinking above the imaginations of the Hollywood directors. Till now the film audiences who are World wide have witnessed films of robots and their positive and negative deeds. But, one can never imagine a robot producing its off spring which looks a bit unbelievable act act.

But the thinking wizard Shanker has churned out the unbelievable and has made a happy note out of it. Recently, some scenes relating to the story were canned in Vellore institute of technology and one such scene was poised to be seen as a Robotic reproduction for which Rajinikanth plays a scientist part surveying the whole process.

According to sources, the whole till date scenes were showed to the producer and the producer Kalanithi Maran was said to be happy with the outcome. But while watching the scenes, director shanker was dissatisfied by some sequences and has decided to re-shoot them again.

Robotic reproduction in Endhiran

A key scene of Endhiran was shot recently at the Vellore Institute of Technology. In the scene, a large number of people along with Rajini were seen standing expectantly in front of a giant screen and then suddenly erupting into applause. The scene was reminiscent to the expression of joy that was seen in the

ISRO offices after the successful launch of Chandrayan.

If you remember, Endhiran has Rajinikanth playing a scientist. In a scene that followed, Rajini was seen briefing the press and telling them that this was the first time that a robot had produced an offspring and this was most certainly one of the landmarks of science.

Robotic reproduction is something that has not been imagined even in Hollywood which churns out futuristic sci-fis every year. All credit to Shankar and the late Sujatha for this out of the world idea.

After completing the schedule at Vellore, the Endhiran unit is set to move to Kulu Manali for the next schedule.

However, the perfectionist that he is, Shankar has seen some scope for

improvement and has decided to re-shoot some of the scenes. With the producer already very happy with what has been made, only a director of Shankar’s quality would have been ready to put even more effort to make the movie better.
