Aishwarya to lose weight for ‘Robot’

aishwarya rai


There was a word going around that Aishwarya had backed out of Rajnikanth starrer ‘Robot’ probably because she wanted to start a family, but the latest one is that the Bachchan Bahu has put that on the back burner… because Robot is too good a role to miss out on.


The director of this sci-fi thriller has apparently told the actress to shed some six kilos as she will have to perform some stunts for the film. So, Ash, who had put on some weight for her role in ‘Jodha Akbar’, has been working out meticulously at the gym and is also on a strict diet so that she can lose the weight quickly. Shankar is known to be very particular even about the smallest details in his film. He wants to leave no stone unturned for Robot as well.


Apparently, the script of Robot is being changed so that it can be more Aishwarya-orientated. Earlier Rajnikanth’s character was to create a robot for his disabled son to play with… but now it will be a woman… a mother. But things go wrong and the Mother-Robot kidnaps the child and wants to kill it. Hence the action scenes between Rajnikanth and Aishwarya.



The film’s budget is a whopping Rs 100 crore. Shankar had approached actors like Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Hrithik Roshan to play the lead before he finalized Rajnikanth.
