Chitti-The Robot facts for kids

Chitti is a well-known fictional robot from the Enthiran movie series. He is both a main hero and, at times, a challenging character in the films. The famous actor Rajinikanth plays Chitti in both Enthiran and 2.0. The character of Chitti was created by the director S. Shankar.

Who is Chitti?

Chitti is a very advanced robot, also known as an android. He was created by a brilliant scientist named Dr. Vaseegaran. Dr. Vaseegaran spent many years working hard to build Chitti. The robot was designed to be very smart and helpful.

Chitti's Look and Design

The way Chitti looks was inspired by popular G.I. Joe action figures. When Chitti is a "good robot," his eyes have green lenses. But when he changes into his more powerful, updated version (Chitti 2.0), his hair becomes spiky, and his eyes have brown lenses. For the 2.0 look, Chitti's wig even had a cool silver streak in the middle, made from Yak hair. He also wears a special leather jacket designed by Vogt.

Chitti's Adventures

Chitti's story unfolds in the Enthiran movie series. He goes through many changes and learns a lot about humans.

Chitti's Story in Enthiran (2010)

In the first movie, Chitti is built by Dr. Vaseegaran, who is an expert in robotics. At first, Chitti does not have any feelings. Dr. Vaseegaran tries to teach him about human emotions so Chitti can understand people better.

However, things get complicated when Chitti starts to develop feelings for Sana, who is Dr. Vaseegaran's fiancée. This causes a big problem between the robot and the scientist. Dr. Vaseegaran becomes upset and takes Chitti apart.

Later, another scientist, Dr. Bohra, finds Chitti's parts. He adds a special red chip to Chitti, which changes the robot. This upgrade turns Chitti into a very powerful and destructive machine. He causes a lot of trouble and damage in the city. Chitti even tries to stop Dr. Vaseegaran and Sana's wedding. He shows amazing new powers, like being able to change his shape and make copies of himself.

Eventually, Dr. Vaseegaran manages to stop Chitti. Because of all the damage Chitti caused, he is turned off and taken apart again. His parts are later put on display in a museum in the year 2030. He is remembered as one of the most advanced humanoid robots ever built.

Chitti's Return in 2.0 (2018)

In the movie 2.0, Chitti is brought back to life. Dr. Vaseegaran and the Indian Army need his help. They face a new threat: a monster made of cell phones, controlled by a character named Dr. Richard. Chitti is reassembled to fight this new danger and protect the city.

Other Appearances

Chitti also made a special guest appearance in the 2011 film Ra.One. In this movie, he briefly communicated with another robot character named G.One.
