Mannara plays travel junkie

Actress Mannara has literally been living out of a suitcase in both her real life and in her reel life! As it turns out, the Jakkanna actress will be seen in the role of a travel junkie in her forthcoming film, Sita. “The chemistry and antics that surround the relationship between Bellamkonda Sreenivas, Kajal Aggarwal, and I, make for an interesting watch,” the actress said. “I have been travelling almost constantly between Delhi, Mumbai, and Hyderabad, so when I learnt that my role in the film corresponds with what I’ve been up to in life for quite some time now, I knew right then that it was going to be interesting.”

Apparently, the actress underwent a complete makeover for her part in the movie. “The director (Teja) wanted me to colour my hair black and sport make up throughout the film. However, I haven’t seen myself on the monitor yet, so I don’t really know how I look in the shots. Even I’m curious to find out, though,” she chuckles. The actress describes Teja as a ‘one of a kind’ director.  “His attention to detail is inspiring. He leaves nothing to chance.”

Also, Mannara and Kajal apparently bonded a great deal while shooting for the film. “This was the first time Kajal and I worked together, and she certainly is a professional. She even helped me get my lines and expressions right through my weak moments.”
