Touted to be one of India’s the most expensive film ever made, Ra.One has already created enough buzz across B-town. News coming in confirm that the satellite rights of this highly anticipated film was sold for Rs 40 crores to star India.

SRK starrer Ra.One boosts of visual effects that were never seen on Indian screen. Being a superhero film, Shahrukh is leaving no stones turn around to make it as stylish and as grandeur as he can. This dimension of King Khan has certainly prompted the team of Star India network to purchase the deal surpassing 3 idiots record of 36 crores mark by Sony TV.

Anubhav Sinha of Dus fame is directing this flick. Kareena Kapoor and Arjun Ramphal are playing other lead roles. If sources are to be believed the film’s budget crossed more than the estimated 100 crores mark.

So at present SRK is one step a head of Aamir Khan. Wonder whether the film will cross 3 idiots figure of collecting more than 360 crores.
