After 3 years of long wait, Rajni and Shankar have delivered an entertainer in a very different way. This is Shankar's spectacular attempt to introduce a science laden robot to a common man.

Let me talk about the plus points of the movie:

1) Original script by Shankar: The storyline is tremendous and is very new to Indian cinema. Shankar has put in a lot of thoughts on the script and delivered his "Dream Project" commercially. His diligence to make it scientific as much as possible -- examples "Peripheral Troubleshooting", "Robosapiens" and "Memory 1 GB" kinda dialogues - is laudable. The plot is very constructive unlike the ones in his previous movies Anniyan and Indian. This reminds me of his other movies Gentleman and Mudhalvan where the Hero constructively perspires for the welfare of the society within his limits.

2) Superstar Rajnikant: Superstar at the age of 60, has done wonderfully well and deserves equal credit to the success along with Shankar. His patience and willingness to different roles proves his humbleness and hunger for success.

3) Animation: Amazing graphics work, which is again new to Indian cinema. We can realise the diligence of Shankar in taking Indian cinema to great heights.

Minus Points:

1) Loose script: It's the only but the biggest minus of the movie. Some of the unwanted scenes spoil the trail of the storyline. Train scene in the first half is one example. It could have been avoided giving those 15 minutes to the villain chitti. The villain chitti suffocates and makes the audiences boring. The second half could have been better with more delicious substance and plot.

Rajni has been a great superstar in Indian cinema and the movie is yet another evidence in a different way - No punch dialogues and unusual style and so is lovable for that. It's an overall nice experience to watch it once. Hope Shankar reassembles the chitti to take us through some amazing magic in a sequel.
