Looks like Anu Emmanuel, who bagged Dhruva Natchathiram, the highly-anticipated project of Gautham Vasudev Menon’s, which stars Vikram in the lead, has opted out of the venture on mutual consent, citing date issues. The first look poster had Anu Emmanuel clad in a saree. Now, it is learnt that without wasting time, Gautham has quickly brought on board Ritu Varma of Pellichoopulu fame as Chiyaan’s pair.
Vikram is also simultaneously shooting for his next movie directed by Vijay Chander. Earlier, Gautham was impressed with Ritu Varma’s performance in Pellichoopulu approached her for its remake in Tamil, which is being produced by his home banner. But, for some reasons, Ritu turned it down and he brought Tamannaah to reprise Ritu’s role in Tamil remake.
Now, after Anu made her exit, Gautham swiftly roped in Ritu for DN. We hear that Ritu has already been shooting for the project in the city. The first schedule was wrapped up earlier this month after shooting some important scenes in Conoor.
