Krithi Shetty has been one of the most sought-after actresses in South India ever since her cutesy and emotional role in 'Uppena' earlier this year became the biggest talking point in the tinsel town. She has been shooting for Ram Pothineni's 19th movie at Ramoji Film City since early July.

Meanwhile, a juicy rumour has surfaced and the rumour involves Krithi and her director N Lingusamy. Recently, the young actress is said to have struggled to pull off a particular emotion in a sentimental scene involving her and senior character artist Nasser.

"Since it is an important scene, the director wanted it to be perfect. Krithi couldn't emote it the way he wanted. The director went for retakes for an hour. Nasser became impatient. At this, Lingusamy reprimanded Krithi," a report says, quoting unnamed and unverified sources.

The Kannada beauty has been in the news for reportedly bagging 'Bangarraju', the ambitious sequel to 'Soggade Chinni Nayana'. Akkineni Nagarjuna and director Kalyan Krishna are said to be upbeat that Krithi has come on board to play a romantic and bubbly role opposite Naga Chaitanya. And Krithi has also stepped into the shoes of Nithin's romantic pair in editor-turned-director SR Sekhar's yet-to-be-launched movie.
