In the U.K. the movie was holding No. 9 position at the B.O. with $538,000 and in the United Arab Emirates it grossed $387,000.
Though there was a slow start for hindi version "Robot" it picked up well as saturday’s collection was bigger than friday and sunday was even bigger.

Rajini’s Million Dollar Question
One of the reporters even asked if a sequel to ‘Robot’ was being planned and only then the answer we all know came up, the superstar went on to say that he really didn’t know what Shankar had in mind but Rajni personally wanted a big break! Of course, he truly deserves it, as he was pretty busy with the shooting and promotion of ‘Endhiran’ besides taking care of his daughter’s wedding!
And before all the journalists thought of winding it up, an excited journo went on to ask the ‘Million Dollar Question’ – “Any plans to get in to politics?” and pat came the reply from the Superstar saying “No Comments”. Just to make sure if the answer was ‘No Plans’, the anxious journalist asked him the same question and even this time, with eyebrows raised the superstar with his characteristic laugh said “I said No Comments”!
Whoa, isn’t that heights of diplomacy? That answer – ‘No Comments’ is multidimensional! It’s got loads of meanings attached to it. And the last question a reporter asked was if the superstar had seen the opening ceremony of the Common Wealth Games? The Superstar told he saw the inauguration and he was really proud to see such a spectacular event.
And coming to the answer for the Million Dollar Question, the Superstar surely knows what could be misquoted and what can’t be! But what do you think; will Rajinikanth make an entry into politics?

Endhiran’ is excellent: Karunanidhi
“Endhiran is an excellent film. It is a very good movie in all aspects. The director’s imagination, the way the cinematographer has handled the camera and performance by Superstar Rajinikanth has impressed me a lot”, Karunanidhi said.
When asked about Sun Pictures, which has produced the multi-crore extravaganza directed by Shankar, the Chief Minister said: “Appreciating Sun Pictures is like appreciating me”.
On the film carrying a Tamil name ‘Endhiran’, which means a robot, Karunanidhi said, “That’s why we have given tax exemption to the movie”. He said ‘Endhiran’ is better than ‘Sivaji’, the earlier film of Rajinikanth.
