Actress Raai Laxmi, who had two releases last year, has been concentrating on her Bollywood film, Julie 2. Post completing the shoot, she has now signed a Tamil film titled Yaar. Helmed by K.S. Bawa, this film is a psychological thriller with horror elements.
Speaking to DC, Raai Laxmi says, “Since I invested a lot of time in Julie 2, I couldn’t do as many Tamil films as I would have liked to. Before I start promoting my Hindi film, I wanted to do a Tamil film so that there wouldn’t be a void in K’town. Yaar’s script was interesting and I will wrap this film up in one and a half months. After completing it, I will once again shift my focus to Julie 2’s dubbing.”
Yaar’s shooting is currently progressing at Thekkadi and will soon move to Hyderabad and Chennai. This movie is produced by Ravi Kottarakara. There is a possibility of this movie being dubbed in other South Indian languages as well.
The Bangalore Naatkal actress is being choosy now. “Initially, I used to do five films a year; now I am working in different industries and churning out even three films a year has become a difficult task. I think I am more careful these days when it comes to the script. I want to be part of experimental yet challenging roles,” quips Laxmi.
We had also reported earlier that she had signed the Tamil remake of the Malayalam flick, 100 Degree Celsius.
