Rajnikanth rocked the box office down south with Endhiran, but the Hindi version of the mega budget sci-fi outing Robot lost out to B-town heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor's mushy antics in Anjaana Anjaani in the northern region, where audiences are opting for the young romance saga.
Rajnikanth rocked the box office down south with Endhiran, but the Hindi version of the mega budget sci-fi outing Robot lost out to B-town heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor's mushy antics in Anjaana Anjaani in the northern region, where audiences are opting for the young romance saga.
While Anjaana Anjaani was made on a budget of Rs.25 crore, Robot is Indian cinema's most expensive movie with an investment of approximately Rs.1.75 billion.

Another multiplex official said: "The weekend was good. All three movies did good business. Anjaana Anjaani was on top with 60-65 percent occupancy while Robot on second with 50 percent. Khichdi managed 35-40 percent.
"All three films had a mixed reaction as they are from different genres. These will extend because there is not much content in the second week," he added.
