Padmapriya to pair up with Allari Naresh

  • IndiaGlitz, [Monday,November 16 2009]

Padmapriya, a known name in Tamil and Malayalam film, fizzled out in Telugu after her first flop debut. Yet she has got another opportunity in Tollywood - with, not one, but two films in her kitty. 'Samudram' and 'Andari Banduvaya'. What more? She is lucky that she is acting in a K Vishwanath film for her debut! What more can an actress ask for. She is getting into the shoes of a role for which Shruthi Haasan was considered in the past.

The film, titled Samudram, has Allari Naresh as the male lead. Wondering who this girl is? Padmapriya Janakiraman as last seen in that super flop Sreenu Vasanthi Lakshmi, with which RP Patnaik infamously turned hero.

After the dud, the talented girl was not to be seen again, except in Malayalam and Tamil. She was in news in Andhra after a long time when she bagged Chandra Siddhartha's 'Andari Banduvaya'. Also doing a Hindi film called Striker, which is about an international carom player.

If Padmapriya strikes gold in Telugu with 'Samudram', she will be famous in Tamil, Malayalam and Telugu - a distinction very few have achieved.
