Story
Dr Vaseekaran (Rajni Kanth) makes a Robot and gives him his own shape. The Robot is omniscient and omnipotent. His motive is to prepare his Robot to join Indian Army. He wishes to make many more such Robots to help Army and reduce loss of lives during wars. But Dr Vaseekaran’s enemy, another scientist (Danny) disproves that his Robot cannot fit to be used for military purposes as it cannot think like a human. He states that it has no emotions and reasoning capacity.
Dr Vaseekaran pumps in human feelings and reasoning capabilities and makes him almost a human. But things turn upside down. Robot starts loving Sana (Aishwarya Rai), the fiancée of Dr Vaseekaran. Robot gets attracted to Sana and that makes Vaseekaran angry. He destroys it.
But the enemy scientist takes the destroyed Robot, repairs it and infuses destructive mechanism in it. He wants it to sell to some international gangsters. But the love for Sana in Robot aggravates as wild possessiveness and that pesters Sana.
Robot becomes very strong physically and becomes like a cruel demon. It even kills the scientist who gives him second birth. It creates massive destruction to society by creating many Robots like itself.
How Dr Vaseekaran deactivates the Robot and brings things to peace is the end of the film.
Artists Performance:
Rajni Kanth is tremendously good at age 60. His moves, his gait and expressions didn’t wane even a bit. He got connected to new age kids and they cannot forget him for rest of their lives. That way Rajni Kanth added another 60 years to his image.
Aishwarya Rai is the true asset for the movie. Her glamour made a lot of difference. As a true goddess of beauty she enchanted everyone. Telugu Movie Reviews
Danny is apt in serious role. His performance is in contemporary international standards.
If there is anything to speak about the film, that’s technical brilliance.
Music is in gen-next style. Sound is marvelous. Canning of songs is opulent. But the lyrics in Kilimanjaro are lewd and weak. Rest of the songs are fine.
Director Shankar deserves great mention for making this biggest feat possible on Indian screen with a message.
Technical Departments:
Shankar is a master commercial director and he makes sure that there are ample commercial elements and conflict points that would appeal to masses. Though Robo is a science fiction movie, Shankar scored the biggest brownie point when he pitted Rajnikant against Rajnikanth. Though it is a story of a relationship between man and machine, Shankar has beautifully showcase the human-side of machine and mechanical side of human. The screenplay of the movie is smooth and direction is near perfect. Shankar lets his imagination wild during the last 30 minutes of the movie and it’s spellbinding. Shankar’s created Chitti character in such a way that it endearing to watch it’s innocence. And you sympathize with Chitti even after it becomes rogue because Shankar has given enough justification for that. Robo is probably one of the very few Indians cinemas where villain is admired and adulated more than hero. The humor episodes of Chitti are rib-tickling. With Robo, Shankar proves that he is the best Indian film director in terms of grandeur, usage of technology and story telling.
Final Analysis:
This saying of great soul of Indian soil lingers in the mind while watching this film. Knowingly or unknowingly Shankar made a movie basing on this saying.
It’s a movie for world children.
Yes, it truly influences the senses of new generation kids those developed relation only with video games but not human beings. Hardly there are joint families now where grand parents teach morals to kids. And the kids tend to listen only to machine. They tend to follow what machine says. And director Shankar aptly takes the way through machine, the Robot, to teach values.
Kids run away listening to words kama, krotha, lobha, moha, mada, matsarya…but they assimilate that when shown in a dramatic way. That too, not in the style of Chandamama stories. They want something with scientific reasoning. Hence the path is chosen through ‘Robot’.
How peaceful the Robo was and how useful that was to society when it’s free from those 6 evils. And how it becomes detrimental to itself and society when injects them into it. That’s aptly narrated.
The true essence of the movie is narrated in the end. The dialogues delivered by Robot while dismantling himself are hitting the hearts. The dialogues touch every human being with introspection. And at last, a girl looks back and goes with a thoughtful grimace. That is a symbolism for entire world kids those will be in thought process from now.
First half is entertaining. The first 30 minutes of second half are not gripping in right standards. That part is boring. But the climax action episode is marvelous to be on Indian screen. The last few closing dialogues are impressive and with true essence.
Hinduism or Islam or Christianity or Shintiosm or Taosim…every religion says one who is free from anger is the true strong man and one who shuns self is the true atman!!! ‘Anger’, as Sukhabodhananda says, is one letter less to danger. That is the true cause for destruction. Let us wish that this movie sows a seed at least in a few minds of children to prevent self entering into calculation while taking decisions….like a school girl that turns back and goes at the end on the screen.

second half really bad
In addition to all the visual extravagance, Shankar succeeded in ending the movie with a simple message about how human emotions can manipulate a machine. Fortunately, there is effectively no moralizing, giving a crush on his science-fiction heady.

The much awaited ROBO Hit screens on oct 1st and its an average movie with awesome aishwarya and technical brilliance . And nothing to do with SUPERSTAR RAJNIKANTH. ROBO ten years dream and three years effort of shankar starring with rajni aish rahman with a high budget of rs 150crores failed to create the feel ,thrill ,emotion ,suspense,curiousity in the audience compared to 20cr ARUNDHATHI 40cr MAGADHEERA. so totally its not much awaited film in india asusually its a much hyped film with nothing.

This is one of the best reviews i have read....excellent.
found ur site while browsing n saw only Telugu movie reviews.pls add Hindi n Tamil movies too...u r 2 gud in reviewing.
swapnil.A
i like this movie very mouch
movie for children, pavan kalyaan fans and balayya fans
Power ticks and Bal tricks..Mixed version..
Have almost same shades of English movies "I-robot" and " Terminator"..
Not worth of 150 crores..
not quite satisfactory with 3.75 rating...U can C Robo in Tollywood makes 40 with ease n from there it satrts crubling to 60 and dissappers in Tollywood..then what for the rating 3.75 given...no hard work by stars in the movie..
Valued only by the script of Shankar and work of Technicans
3.5 is k...
there is no need to pointing out the mistakes. over all its a family entertainer!!!
