When Shankar narrated Robo story to Rajinikanth, the Superstar raised a genuine doubt by asking him if he could pull off that Robot character! Shankar smiled and said 'I will take care of it'. Shankar simply spent some extra money in making exact face masks of Rajinikanth and canned the action blocks and dance sequences using a dupe.
In Robo more than thirty percent of scenes were shot using Rajini's dupe. But no one complained as they got their money's worth. Taking a cue out of it, Rajinikanth is planning to use dupes for his next film Rana.
Rajinikanth who is just out from hospital after recovering from a serious illness, is not in a state to do dances and fights. Rajini should be 100 percent healthy to do Rana film which demands so much physical strain. So, Rajini and the makers of Rana decided to hire a close looking dupe and use face masks to shoot the key episodes.
