Nayanthara is one of the few leading ladies of Tamil cinema who scorched the screens in a bikini in the 2007 blockbuster hit movie 'Billa' starring Ajith Kumar in the lead. Now there is a red hot news doing the rounds that the Lady Superstar will be wearing much more modern bikinis in her Bollywood debut movie 'Jawan'.

The reports came in from Bollywood claiming that Nayan agreed to wear the bikinis to emulate Deepika Padukone who did the same in Shah Rukh Khan's recently released 'Pathaan' which has grossed more than Rs 1000 crores worldwide. However sources close to director Atlee have quashed the rumours saying that the director has given Nayan a long time friend a meaty role that does not require any glamour.

'Jawan' slated for release on June 2nd this year boasts of such big names in the cast as Shah Rukh Khan, Vijay Sethupathi, Sanjay Dutt, Nayanthara, Priya Mani, Yogi Babu, Sanya Malhotra, Sunil Grover and Deepika Padukone among others. Leading Tamil music composer Anirudh Ravichander is also making his Hindi debut with this action entertainer.
