Putting an end to all speculation on whether she is doing the film or not, the gorgeous Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has reportedly signed Robot opposite Tamil superstar Rajnikant .
Ash has not only signed the deal but also received a whopping amount as advance, which is said to be much more than any leading south Indian actress has got for a film.
Ash is reported to be getting whopping Rs 6 crore for Shankar 's big budget mega film that is being produced by Ayngaran International in association with Eros Entertainment.
In fact, Ash’s 6 crore is said to be the highest ever paid to an Indian actress to do a film.
Both the sides are extremely happy over the deal, as Shankar has been assured of priority dates when he starts the shoot some time in May/June.
Added to that, Ash’s dates will be available over a period of 18 months on mutually agreed days.
Ash will also be doing Mani Ratnam 's film to start sometime in September/October with her husband Abhishek Bachchan , with most of the indoor shoot likely to happen in Chennai.
And since Ratnam has excellent equations with Rajnikant and Shankar, there will not be any issues regarding Ash's dates, it is being said.
