Meera, unstoppable

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,February 14 2008]

In Indian cinema business, it is held that if an actress falls in love and announces her marriage it is always deemed as 'risky' as far as her new films and projects are concerned.

Most producers and directors believe that this news itself can resist a significant number of film viewers from seeing their favorite heroine's movies. Meera Jasmine, who has recently come out openly announcing her love affair and chances of a nearby marriage, faces a similar problem in Tamil as some of her producers are planning to recast some others in the place of her. One of the specific case is that of director Vijayakumar, who was planning to cast her in his forthcoming film 'Payanigal Gavanathirku', with Jeevan, has now decided to cast Priyamani in the movie.

But in Mollywood where actors are rated more for their emoting quotients, this never seems to be a problem. Meera, even after her announcements about marriage, continues to be the most sought after heroine in Malayalam. The actress who is presently in the sets of Sathyan Anthikkad film with Mohanlal is surrounded by a lot of new offers, which all have her in roles of great promises. But she is very careful in selecting roles and more than often, discards film even from big commercial directors. The actress seems to have got great capability of realizing the better movies, as she had agreed to be with only a few in the coming future. The immediate film that she will be seen is with Mammootty in 'Kutty Shranaku' and thereafter she will join the sets of new film by ace director Kamal.
