Shankar's Rajinikanth starrer 'Enthiran' was considered India's most expensive film, until SS Rajamouli broke the record with his two-part fantasy drama 'Baahubali'. Taking up on the challenge, the director is raising the bar with 'Enthiran 2' with Rajini reprising his role. But wait! There's more! Making his Indian film debut with the movie is none other than Terminator himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger! He will fly down for the film's first schedule in January to play a rogue robot in the film. Confirming the news, Shankar said, “Arnold and I discuss a lot of Indian movies. He attended the audio launch of my Vikram starrer, 'I', and told me that he wanted to work in Tamil films. He was impressed with the storyline of Enthiran 2 and agreed to be a part of the film.” 'Enthiran', which bagged two National Awards, one for Best Special Effects and the other for Best Production Design, was the story of a scientist and his robot Chitti who turns against him. Shankar reveals that the sequel is very different, “Enthiran 2 is a superhero film, a sci-fi adventure, a triangular love story with bits inspired from the Ramayana.”
