Do you need a friend you can always count on to be there? Do you have a couple hundred grand you don't mind spending? Then the Realbotix company has got

Tech firm Realbotix has unveiled a humanoid robot called Aria at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). Available starting at $10,000 (roughly ₹7.5 lakh), this human-like robot can hold real-time conversations using generative artificial intelligence.

Realbotix, a US-based tech firm, has introduced Aria, an AI robot designed to replicate human-like interactions. With a price tag of ₹1.5 crore ($175,000), Aria offers advanced facial expressions and tailored companionship.

Realbotix introduced Aria at CES 2025, a humanoid robot with human-like features and advanced conversational skills. Bollywood fans may relate Aria with SIFRA, played by Kriti Sanon in Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya.

Although Aria isn’t cheap. At just over R3,3 million ($175,000) , she’s a luxury that very few can afford. Still, Realbotix CEO Andrew Kiguel is focused on a broader vision: robots like Aria becoming a normal part of our lives in education, healthcare, and even entertainment.
