17 BULLETS ON ENDHIRAN

Will be the first tamil movie to be distributed by HBO films.

*Aishwarya Rai's 5th tamil film, ironically all of them had A.R. Rahman's music.

*Shankar's dream project for 10 years.

*Hollywood special fx studio Stan Winston will do the robotic special fx.

*Peter Hayne, the film's stunt director, almost lost his life on the set, with Shankar nicknaming him "Peter Pain" at the Endhiran audio launch.

*The 8th A.R. Rahman-Shankar film.

*The second consecutive Rajini-Shankar film.

*The most expensive tamil and indian film ever made.

*The soundtrack was the first ever tamil soundtrack to top itunes for world albums.

*The film set a record for highest foreign prints sold.

*The first film with double acting Rajini's since Muthu.

*Ironically the two films Shankar has directed with the lead actor in double roles: Jeans and Endhiran, both featured Aishwarya Rai as the lead actress!

Endhiran




*Originally was to be made with Kamal Hassan and Preity Zinta in the leads.

*The audio launch was the biggest in tamil history.

*Some scenes of the film were shot in Machu Pichu, a historical site not usualy allowed to be used for shooting.

*Endhiran will be the last film that Rajini will play a youthful character, as his films after will feature him in roles closer to his age.
