Hansika Motwani in talks for Sangamithra?

Jayam Ravi and Arya play the two male leads in this historical flick.

Sangamithra, a period fantasy flick, produced by Thenandal Films and directed by Sundar C, made a lot of heads turn for its mammoth budget and casting. Initially, Shruti Haasan was signed on to play the titular role of Sangamithra and she also took sword-training lessons in London in April. The title and the film were launched in a grand manner at the Cannes Film Festival 2017. Jayam Ravi and Arya play the two male leads in this historical flick.

Owing to unforeseen circumstances, Shruti Haasan opted out of the project and the production house’s search for a worthy replacement was on. While names of Anushka Shetty and Nayanthara were floating around, Hema Rukmini of Thenandal confirmed that they haven’t finalised anyone yet.

Of late, it is being speculated that Hansika may be the front-runner to play the role of Sangamithra. A source close to the actress disclosed, “She has been approached for the project, but nothing is concrete now.” Given the history of Sundar C and Hansika, it will be a great deal if the latter comes on board for the prestigious project.
