Anushka: 'I Charge What I Deserve'

Anushka: 'I Charge What I Deserve'

November 11, 2009



She was known as the yoga guru and now she is fondly called as ‘Bommali’. That has not stopped there and now she has become the darling of the southern box office. She is none other than Anushka Shetty and right now, she is gearing up to capture Tamil hearts. Anushka is playing the lead along with Vijay in his next film Vettaikaran and recently, she got to share her thoughts.

Speaking about how ‘Arundhati’ has life changed, Anushka said that it created a new trend in filmmaking. The film did not have a hero and revolved around a supernatural theme and ‘Punarjanma’ concept. She stated that the only key for success is a strong script. Anushka also owed it to producer Shyam Prasad Reddy who gave her the chance to do this venture. She recalled the time when many had marked him down for making a film like Anji after giving out so many hits earlier. But then he has proved them all wrong now. This has also given a notion that Anushka is becoming the point of focus for women-centric films for which the pretty girl said that she doesn’t believe in hero- or heroine-oriented films. She said that it is the script that does the talking. However, she also said that the heroes do a lot of hard work and reminded that it is not easy to romance, dance, fight, cry and laugh, and entertain fans in those three hours.

Responding to the query that she has become the most sought after for every filmmaker and is currently working with the biggest stars in the south, Anushka puts up her innocent face and says she has no idea as to how she is getting all these projects. But just like all other things that happened in her life including her entry into films, she admits that she didn’t see this coming. She revealed that she was a yoga instructor with Bharat Thakur and had never thought of a career in films. The voluptuous beauty admits she is hot property today, but then that doesn’t stop her from giving her best to every film, she added. The pretty girl said that if she was not an actress she would have been a teacher. Reacting to the buzz that few of the industry folks can’t afford the high remuneration, Sweety (her pet name) retorted that she charges what she deserves. She also maintained that it is not an astronomical amount. She puts the fact straight that people come here to do good work and to make money. When asked if she has offers from Bollywood, Anushka said that she has not really thought about it but if there is an interesting project coming her way then she is open to all kinds of roles, be it glamorous or deglam. Anushka will be enthralling the audience with her Kollywood assignments and she has also got ‘Vedam’ with super talented Krish in the making. We wish Sweety all the best and hope that she brings smiles at the box office, good luck ‘Bommali’!!!
