Hansika Motwani, who was in the news for quite a while despite not having had a single release in Tamil, is currently thrilled about opening her K’Town innings with Maapillai, which hit cinemas recently. “I hope people like me in this film, I am keeping my fingers crossed,” said the gorgeous Hansika, who was recently in town for her upcoming flick Velayudham’s shooting with Vijay.
The Tollywood star seems to enjoy every moment that she’s shooting with Vijay. She said Velayudham was the first film in which she played a village belle, a role totally different from her prior performances. “I play a naïve and bubbly girl from a village. It’s an out-and-out mass masala commercial movie.”
She heaped praise on her costar. “Vijay is a sweet person and a wonderful costar. He is very helpful and we share a great chemistry on screen. His energy levels, especially in songs, are amazing!”
We told her we had heard that she’d done a steamy romantic number with Vijay. She shrugged. “It is part and parcel of cinema. There is a cute sizzling number, but it is not as hot as the rumours make it out to be,” she clarified.
Hansika said that Aascar Productions were treating her like a princess and with so much of positive vibes around she was able to perform better. Didn’t she feel threatened by the presence of another Bollywood heroine Genelia in Velayudham? She shook her head emphatically.
“Oh, no. I have a lot of faith in the script narrated by my director Raja. Moreover, I am playing the love interest of Vijay in Velayudham,” she announced with a triumphant glint in her eyes. The message was clear!
