The Southern Spice – Shriya Saran

Her first Bollywood film ‘Shukriya’ bombed at the box office. But now at 22, southern siren Shriya Saran has not only played lady love to superstar Rajnikant in his magnum opus ‘Shivaji: The Boss’, she is now all set to try her luck in Bollywood again with ‘Awarapan’.She says for Rajnikant,” He is a demi-god. Often you are disappointed on meeting stars but when I met him my admiration quadrupled.”

Talking about language problems she says she had none. “I am a pucca north Indian doing Telugu and Tamil movies. I know Telugu but someone has to dub for me.”
