This movie has been picturised in the 1970 style.In this movie an south Indian actress comes to Hindi film industry to act, and she becomes a super star. I am acting in that role.
Since I am an south Indian actress this role suits me well. I am getting a lot of offers from bollywood. I am going to act in a Yash Chopra production too soon. There is a lot of rumors that I am in dating hindi actor ranbir kapoor. I've trained to distance myself from such rumors as soon as I joined the film industry.
