After a long gap Sandalwood queen Ramya came before the media on Wednesday morning at the ‘Aryan’ launch at Kanteerava studio – Prasad studio adjacent to Dr Raj Memorial and was cool in discussing on various topics.

Ramya Congress-I youth wing leader today is taking up the campaigning for her candidates. She has already started for a few candidates in Bangalore. For the second round the star campaigner is advised to take ‘Helicopter’ to reach wide areas in Karnataka where Congress-I candidates are contesting.

For traveling in air it is a big botheration for Ramya. She has traveled many a times but it is cumbersome she feels. The person sitting next to me is pestered and I prefer A1 seat near the window so that I can jump. I was very much scared when I traveled for ‘Sanju Weds Geetha’ shoot to Bidar. I have even consulted a few people on this fear stated Ramya.

This year is the time to rejoice for Ramya as she has finished a decade of stay in Kannada cinema and undoubtedly the ‘Heroine of the decade’ in Kannada filmdom like Puneeth Rajakumar hero of the last one decade.

I have not got awards at the state level and other prestigious places are not bothering me. I never went behind it she says. On her Kodi Ramakrishna project a bilingual she is very confident on the response. Kodi sir is recovering. That film will be in the ‘Arundhathi’ pattern. It is at the graphic stage mentioned Ramya.

With a few days of work for ‘Dil Ka Raaja’ with Prajwal Devaraj, Ramya is keen on finishing her two projects – Neer Dosai with Jaggesh and Aryan that has just started with Shivarajakumar. With these two films Ramya is now left out in films of V Ravichandran and Ramesh Aravind top actors of Kannada film.

Ramya alias Divya Spandana in Tamil has given nod for a periodic cinema in the direction of Vasanth Balan that has AR Rahman music.

How about her role in ‘Aryan’ the first combination with century star Shivarajakumar? It has two shades and I have to work out to look a good athlete. I was in to sports when I was studying in Ooty. I am very confident of good progress of this film and I am happy for a film with Shivanna says Ramya. Veteran director D Rajendra Babu is the director of ‘Aryan’ and I have worked with him in ‘Bombaat’ Kannada film Ramya remembers.
