Shalu's creator, Dinesh Patel cites the 2010 film Enthiran[17] and Hanson Robotics' humanoid robot, Sophia, as his prime motivation for building the robot. He worked on the robot for 3 years.[18][19] The first version of the robot was introduced to the world on 23 Nov 2020 by means of a telecast on DD News.[20]

The robot is made at home using waste materials[21] as well as aluminum, plastic, cardboard, wood, newspapers, and other things readily available in the local market.[22] No 3D-printed components are used and the cost is low, around ₹ 50,000 Indian rupees ($675, €572).[23] Shalu's intelligent software is designed and developed using open-source libraries like TensorFlow and NLTK.[20] by Patel. Work on the development of the next version of the robot Shalu is currently in progress.[24][25]

The name "Shalu” is an acronym. ‘S’ for Scientifically and technically, ‘H’ for Highly reciprocal, ‘A’ for Advanced Humanoid, ‘L’ for Language communicator, ‘U’ for Uniquely designed means, Scientifically designed, Uniquely and highly Advanced Language communicator Humanoid.[1]

She knows a range of subjects like Physics, Chemistry, General Knowledge,[29] History and Geography, etc.[30] and is capable to give lectures / presentations in the classroom as well as seminars.[26][30]

Shalu can be used as a robot teacher in schools to give a lecture in the classroom based on an uploaded Power-Point Presentation, developed by a human teacher,[32] answer the queries of students, ask them questions and determine the correctness of given answers too.[33][34] She can work as receptionist to respond to customer queries verbally as well as e-mail and SMS.[32] It can be used as a talking companion to senior citizens and a learning companion for young children too.[20][35]

Dinesh said “I am keen to make it more beneficial for the students in impoverished communities. There are tens of thousands of children yet to make it to schools across India. I am targeting that to help such children who are willing to study but can't afford it.[54] Shalu can be an example and a source of inspiration for young, energetic future scientists who fall behind due to a lack of support and encouragement."[25]
