Vedhika to romance Siddharth
After receiving critical acclaim for her perform ance in Bala's period-drama `Paradesi', which is being dubbed into Telugu right now, actress Vedhika Kumar who was seen in the critically acclaimed `Banam', has signed another period romance `Kaaviya Thalaivan' in the same language as she is not 'afraid' of being typecast.
'I take it as a compliment because I don't think anybody is bothered about such trivial things nowadays,' said Vedhika. 'I'm not afraid of being typecast because I believe period films are not easy to play. If I've been chosen again for a period flick, then probably I have the ability to pull off such roles,' she added.
She is paired with Siddharth in `Kaaviya Thalaivan', which is being directed by National awardwinning Tamil director Vasanthabalan.
The movie is said to be based on the real life relationship between singers KB Sundarambal and SG Kittappa. Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman has been roped in to score music for the movie.
'I don't have reasons to worry because I'm extremely happy that I will be working with a highly efficient team of Vasanth sir, Rahman sir and my producer Sashikanth. How many get such opportunity,' said Vedhika, who is likely to start shooting from July. The film also features Prithviraj Sukumaran, Nassar, Thambi Ramaiah and Anaika.
