As
expected
Endhiran
has
been
voted
as
the

by

The
movie,
which
was
made
with
the
budget
of
150
crores,
had
earned
the
positive
feedback
from
all
three
versions
of
the
film.
Vinnaithaandi
Varuvaayaa,
Angaadi
Theru,
Madrasapattinam
and
Singam
were
also
nominated,
but
these
movies
could
not
stand
tall
in
front
of
Rajini's
star
power.
