Actress Paayal Radhakrishna who has featured in a handful of Kannada movies is making her Tollywood debut opposite Adith Arun in his new film Loka Kalyanam Kosam. A love story, the film, directed by debutant Madhudeep, went to sets sometime earlier this month.

The makers were on the hunt for a fresh face who would be flexible with her call sheets. Paayal’s portfolio impressed the director and as the model-turned-actress too was keen on a Telugu debut, things fell in place quickly. The Hyderabad-set drama will trace the love story and the marriage of a US returned guy (played by Adith). Majority of the story unfolds in a gated community.

Bewarse producers are bankrolling the venture, which sees a host of familiar names like Anish Kuruvilla, Satya Krishnan, Gundu Sudarshan and Viva Harsha in supporting roles.
