Break in Bollywood: The Southern hottie made her Bollywood debut opposite Armaan Jain with the film Lekar Hum Deewana Dil. About her Bollywood film, she’s said, “I am not a planner. It was just that when my Telugu film was going to release, the audition for Lekar Hum…. happened and I got through. I liked the script and decided to go for it. It was not that I was desperately looking for a B-Town entry. With Hindi being my mother tongue, I could have started there only, which I didn’t do. I feel that if something has to happen, it will happen.”
