Sanchita Shetty, who rose to fame with Soodhu Kavvum and Villa (Pizza 2), is a busy woman these days. With a couple of films in her kitty lined up for release including Ennodu Vilayadu, Love Guru and Enkitta Modhadhey, she has even bagged a film opposite Mohan Lal under Priyadarshan’s direction!
Says the actress, “I am happy that I am making my Mollywood debut, that too, with such senior people in the industry. Titled Oppam, the film is a crime thriller and focuses on the character of Lalettan, who plays the role of visually challenged person. I am a big fan of his! I’ve a substantial role to play as well. I fell in love with this film the moment I listened to the script. We’ll begin shooting from next month onwards.”
However, the Thillalangadi actress says she’s looking forward to working in more Tamil films. “I am quite choosy when it comes to scripts. Someday, I wish I do movies that have a historical relevance,” she adds.
Sanchita is satisfied about the way her Kollywood career is shaping up. “I do films in Telugu, Kannada and also Tamil. I am overwhelmed with the kind of respect I get everywhere. But, I am quite conscious about what I am doing because I make it to a point that each one of my characters are different from the others that I have essayed,” she signs off.
