Rajinikanth Aishu's Endhiran set for 2010 Sep

Bollywood diva Aishwarya Rai and Tamil superstar Rajnikant's mega-budget Endhiran is expected to hit the screens September 3, 2010.

Produced by Sun Pictures and directed by Shankar, Endhiran is said to be one of the most expensive films. It's made at a budget of Rs.190 crore.

During a press conference, Rajnikant had hinted that the film may be released some time in August. But if sources in the Tamil industry are to be believed than Endhiran will be released simultaneously in India and abroad Sep 3 on more than 1000 screens.

The formal announcement regarding the release date is expected to come soon.

Meanwhile, director Shankar has revealed the film's story on his blog.

"It revolves around a robot, who, all of a sudden turns into a human being and mingles with society," Shankar posted on his blog.

"The film will have many surprises. Technology has been used to the maximum possible extent. I am hopeful that 'Endhiran' will surpass all expectations. Rajni is such a simple man who is totally unaware of his fame and power."

Oscar winner A.R. Rahman has composed the music, while Rathnavelu has worked behind the camera for the movie.
