Anushka shetty kollywood career

Her first film in Tamil was ‘Rendu’ opposite Madhavan. The film's misfortunes affected Anushka and she returned to Tamil only after three years for ‘Vettaikaran’ opposite Vijay, but her second film also grossly let her down and she fell victim to the sentiments of Tamil film industry.

Then came ‘Arundhathee’ and its phenomenal success, even as a dubbed film, reversed the fortunes of Anushka. Then came ‘Singam’ and Anushka consolidated her place in Kollywood. The recently released ‘Panchamuki’ also did not harm her.

Detractors tried to put her down by commenting on her height but her status in only growing tall. The box office success of ‘Arundhathee’ and ‘Singam’ has made her one of the first choice of many reputed directors.

'Vaanam' is ready for release and it is sure to benefit her. Now she has signed a film opposite Vikram for director ‘Madrasapattinam’ Vijay. Anushka plays a role of a lawyer and has ample scope for performance. Also buzz is there saying she might also bag the new film of director Lingusamy 'Vettai' to play opposite Arya.

If Kollywood's red carpet is getting wider for her, the Tollywood is also not ready to leave her yet. Anushka will do ‘Arundhathee - Part-2’ soon. Another coveted offer knocking at her door is a film with Chiranjeevi. She hasn't decided on that.

Anushka reveals her beauty secret

Anushka whose real name is Sweetie Shetty while speaking to the media said,”Vaanam is my fourth Tamil film. This film is remake of Telugu film Vedam.

This film has a good storyline. I am donning the role called Saroja. It is very happy to work with the team like Simbhu, Bharath, Vega, Soni Agarwal and Prakash Raj. Normally I am very interested in dancing. Simbhu is also good dancer.

Both of us have shaken our legs for a Kuthu song which is going definitely enthrall the audience. Many are asking me whether I know yoga. Lot of changes has happened in my life. Some of the changes have happened due to yoga. Cinema is one such thing.

When I was doing Plus Two I opted for statistics. When I joined college I did B C A. When I completed college, I got interested in yoga. Immediately I joined yoga class and started learning it systematically. The instructor for my yoga class was Bhagat’s friend.

This yoga is helping me keeping my physique and health fit. Director Nivas introduced me into cinema. I came to cinema without any knowledge of cinema. But the film Arundhathi gave me the status of best actress and made me popular.

When I don’t have shooting I do yoga, otherwise there is no time for me to do yoga continuously. Many are asking me about the secret of my beauty. I exercise 30 minutes every day. I drink lot of water. I finish my dinner by 8 pm. Apart from this no secret. I always feel that we should protect the beauty given to us by nature. May be this could be the secret.”

Anushka is No.1 actress

Anushka is caught in a catch 22 situation. She has to make up her mind whether to concentrate more on Kollywood or Tollywood.
The actress has been flooded with offers from Tamil cinema following the success of her dubbed Arundathi and Singam with Suriya.

Now the latest we hear is that the lady who is doing Vaanam in Tamil has been offered Madhrasapattinam fame Vijay's new film with Vikram and Lingusamy's action packed Vettai with Arya and Maddy.

She is likely to do director Vijay's film where she will play a fiercely independent lawyer who takes up the brief for Vikram. It is said to be a performance oriented role.

But what is nagging Sweety as she is known among friends is that her career in Telugu which was going great guns has hit a rock with the failure of her big budget Mahesh Babu actioner Khaleeja. Her advisors are telling her to concentrate more in Telugu than Tamil films.

Anushka is currently doing four films in Telugu with major stars and there are plans to do a sequel to her blockbuster Arundathi . Today Anushka is undoubtedly the number one in Telugu ahead of her immediate rivals Ileana and Genelia.

Vaanam movie audio launch on October 18 in London

The anticipated multi starrer film ‘Vaanam’ produced by ‘VTV’ Ganesh is almost complete and the team has started working on the promotions. The first major act is going to be the launch of its music in London on October 18.

The audio launch is going to be a big event with the entire cast walking the red carpet on that day. Anushka, Bharath, Vega and Sonia Agarwal along with Yuvan Shankar Raja, director Krish is expected to fly to London on Friday. Silambarasan is already in London shooting for ‘Podaa Podi’.

This will be the second audio launch of a Tamil film happening in London after ‘Vinnaithandi Varuvaya’ and this too is being made possible by the producer of ‘VTV’.

‘Vaanam’ is one of the big films of this year and it is expected to change some rules of the Kollywood game.

Anushka speaks about herself

Anushka after acting in a single Tamil film had gone away. Now she is back and is on the top. Anushka while speaking to the media said,” I should have become a leading actress in Tamil cinema very earlier. But to unknown reasons it was delayed.

Since I became busy in Telugu I could not find time to act in Tamil films. But now I have got that place and I should work very hard to retain this position. There is a question that I am acting more in super power roles. In Arundhathi I donned the super power role.

Similarly I did these kind of roles in some films. Many are commenting that Anushka is not acting realistically. You should have the boldness to act in the challenging roles. The whole burden of Arundhathi was on me.

Was not this film a hit? Because of this only I am getting such offers. Acting is not alone singing duet with the heroes. Many are asking me that why I have agreed to work in remake films. I am not against remakes but at the same time I don’t want to do the same role again and again.

But I have donned the role in the Tamil film Vaanam which I did in the Telugu original film Vedam. The reason for this is director Krish. It would wonderful to work with him. You can learn a lot of things from him. This film will add strength to my career in Tamil.

There was news that Simbhu is my fan. Not only him, lots of other heroes are my fans. Simbhu has openly mentioned this. I am thankful to him for this. Whether my height is a plus or minus, I should say that I am not extraordinarily tall. I am of average height. So far I have not faced problems in acting because of my height. Most of the heroes these days are taller.”

Vaanam shooting nears to end

The shooting of Vaanam, the Simbu and Bharath multi-starrer, is nearing the climax. Literally! Director Krish has already finished filming the portions involving different actors in the movie. Since the plot revolves around the conjuncture of five characters in the climax, it is quite a task to acquire the dates of all the actors. According to sources, only a few scenes and the climax remain to be filmed.

Vaanam has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja and he along with Simbu, will be releasing a single track for the promotional agenda on October 15. The film's producer VTV Ganesh is also planning to premiere the movie in London. Vaanam is expected to be released during the last week of November or by first week of December.
