After Sivaji, Shankar ropes in SRK for Robot

New Delhi: If you thought southern filmmaker Shankar went big with superstar Rajinikanth in the recently-released Sivaji, it only gets bigger and better.

This time, it is target Shah Rukh Khan and he won’t be running around trees romancing the ladies.

Said to be Shankar’s dream project, it’s a sci-fi film, titled Robot, that will have Shah Rukh playing the lead.

So impressed was Shah Rukh with Shankar’s project, that he offered to produce the film under his banner, Red Chillies Entertainment.

Though Shankar is being tight-lipped about the project, we know that he’s spending every waking minute working out the finer details of the project and Robot will officially go on the floors in four months’ time.

And while the filmmaker busies himself with his dream venture, Shah Rukh’s got his hands full at the moment with the upcoming film Chak De India in which he plays a coach to a girls hockey team.

As Chak De India promos keep up the buzz on King Khan, we’re sure very soon a bit of the Robot zing will take over. After all, the Baadshah of Bollywood doesn’t stay out of news for long. So keep watching this space for more.
