Hansika's 50th film Maha is running successfully in cinemas. The film managed to gain attention from fans as it featured Silambarasan in an extended cameo. Now Hansika has revealed how she managed to bring Simbu on board for this project.

“Not a lot of people know this but all it took for Simbu to come aboard was one call from me. He is a dear friend and has an amazing presence. He has always had a charm,” said Hansika Motwani.

“Being the 50th film, this had to be different work to whatever I had done in the past. I had never done a female-centric movie before Maha, so it naturally fits. It has also been a while since I have done a thriller,” she said.

Maha, directed by U.R Jameel, is a thriller that features Hansika in the role of a mother and explores her character’s bond with her daughter. The actress revealed that she gave the nod to the movie as it was completely different from her previous releases.
