Shankar
is
known
for
directing
films
with
sheer
brilliance
and
grandeur.
His
film
Enthiran
was
considered
as
a
huge
leap
from
Indian
cinema
to
get
closer
to
the
western
films
in
terms
of
bringing
in
world
class
technology
into
our
own
films.
It
was
also
a
massive
box
office
winner
apart
from
being
a
trend
setter.
After
the
success
of
Enthiran
there
were
talks
that
Shankar
will
direct
the
sequel
with
Rajinikanth
in
the
lead
for
the
third
time
in
Shankar's
last
5
films.
Also
there
were
news
doing
rounds
that
Shankar
was
considering
to
rope
in
Bollywood
star
Aamir
Khan
as
the
main
antagonist
in
the
sequel.
Now
according
to
the
latest
buzz,
Aamir
khan
has
given
his
nod
to
be
an
integral
part
of
Robo
2
however,
it
is
still
not
clear
if
its
for
the
role
of
a
baddie
or
for
the
role
of
a
scientist
in
which
Rajinikanth
could
be
seen
only
as
a
machine.
The
news
has
created
huge
craze
among
fans
across
the
country
as
the
film
could
possibly
bring
two
influential
superstars
of
the
country
together
on
screen
if
the
grapevine
blossoms
from
just
a
bud
to
a
big
bright
flower.
Interestingly,
Shankar
had
first
narrated
the
script
of
Enthiran
(Robo)
to
Sharukh
Khan
before
it
landed
in
the
hands
of
Rajinikanth
after
Sharukh
rejected
the
script
with
sources
alleging
that
he
thought
the
script
lacked
logic.
Aamir
khan
too
is
an
actor
who
thinks
a
lot
about
selecting
his
scripts
but
gives
everything
to
the
character
once
he
makes
his
mind
up
to
feature
in
the
film.
Enthiran
2
will
most
likely
have
AR
Rahman
as
its
music
director
as
Shankar
shares
a
good
rapport
with
the
Mozart
of
Madras.
Other
informations
about
the
film
have
not
scratched
the
surface
yet
including
its
technicians
and
other
casting.
The
film
is
also
expected
to
be
a
Tamil-Hindi
bilingual
and
sources
close
to
the
development
say
that
the
sequel
too
will
most
likely
have
a
top
Bollywood
actress
as
its
leading
lady.
