Radha Mohan had made a casting call for the roles of Jyothika’s twin sister in Kaattrin Mozhi, a remake of B’town film Tumhari Sulu. Earlier we had reported that he had settled for the twins Seema Taneja and Sindhu Shekaran who played roles in the original film.
Radha had then wished to cast real life twins, preferably Tamil speaking ones “Are you twin ladies? Are you in the age group of 35 to 45 years? Are you interested to act in our film Kaatrin Mozhi as Jyothika’s elder sisters? Knowledge of Tamil will be preferred,” read his audition poster. It appears it didn’t work out and the actresses who played in the original have been roped in and given suitable looks to suit the southern background.
While Jyothika reprises Vidya Balan’s role, there are two crucial characters in the movie who are elder sisters to the former who always criticise her for being a school dropout and mock her failed business ideas. Real life twins Sindhu Shekharan and Seema Taneja had played these roles and they will be doing so again, this time in Tamil.
