I've been doing some research on this film.

This movie was filmed and released in Tamil (one of the many languages spoken in India) as "Enthiran" and is also referred to as "Endhiran" for some reason. They're probably trying to get the closest they can to the Tamil pronunciation without ripping out your tongue.

It was later dubbed into Hindi (one of the most widely spoken languages in India) and released as "Robot" and dubbed into Telugu and released as "Robo".

There are several DVD releases that I've seen. I believe that all versions have English subtitles...

- A Tamil language 2 DVD special edition from Ayngaran International - "Endthiran"
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004L2FCOW/?tag=3feetunder-20

- A Hindi dubbed DVD version from Venus/Reliance Home Video - "Robot"
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004QIDWUC/?tag=3feetunder-20

- A Telugu dubbed DVD version from Bhavani DVD - "Robo"
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004MCHR1W/?tag=3feetunder-20

- There's also a 2 in 1 Tamil DVD release that squeezes two complete movies on one DVD and is very poorly reviewed due to the obvious image quality problems. This one should be avoided...
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004E2X8YU/?tag=3feetunder-20

Note that the movie is over 2.5 hours, so a dual layer DVD release is a must for decent picture quality.

- Finally there's a DVD release by Lotus Fivestar that I believe is in Tamil but I think it's on a single layer DVD so the quality isn't that great. I can't seem to find anywhere that has it for sale, but there's torrents floating around so I know it exists.

I've seen multiple cover artwork for each of these releases, so I think you need to look closely at the fine print to make sure you're getting what you think you're getting.
