Mega Akash impresses Kannan
Mega Akash, the hot heroine of Dhanush in Gautham Menon's Ennai Nokki Payum Thotta has bagged yet another plum film in Tamil. Director Kannan has roped her in for his upcoming untitled project, which has Atharvaa in the lead. Megha is also awaiting the release of the much talked about film Oru Pakka Kadhai by Balaji Dharaneetharan.
The untitled film is an action drama and is set in Chennai city and Tirunelveli. Though buzz is that there are two heroines in the film, it is now revealed that Megha Akash is the only female lead in the film. Talking to DC, Kannan said, “I watched Megha’s song bit with Dhanush from Ennai… released earlier and was deeply impressed by her expressions and fresh looks. I was also looking out for a similar girl for the female lead in my film. And, I always give importance to all my lead heroine characters instead of using them as mere glam girls, be it Bhavana, Tamannah or Taapsee in the past.”
And it seems this movie is also no different. “I narrated the script to her and she was too happy to come on board. She plays a city girl and a viscom student. Hers is a fresh character which has a bearing in the script.”
While Radhan of Arjun Reddy fame is composing the music, Kannan, who is also producing the film in his home banner Masala Pix, has roped in Prasanna S. Kumar for cinematography.
