Amala Paul is a happy-go-lucky, cheerful girl in real life. “I am bindas, as they say. So when I was offered director Ramesh Varma’s Vastha Nee Venuka in Telugu with Havish in the lead, a heroine-centric film very much on the lines of the Hindi film Cocktail , I was thrilled. For once, I didn’t have to make much effort in enacting the role as I was actually playing myself!” reveals Amala. As for Tamil, the long-in-the-making Nimirndhu Nil has finally released and Amala Paul is heaving a sigh of relief. “I am happy that the film is doing well and I am awaiting the release of its Telugu version soon,” says Amala who is currently busy with the final schedule of Velaiyilla Pattathari with Dhanush. “I play a mature doctor who tries to instil some discipline in a wayward, fun-loving Dhanush. I have also signed up for director Samuthirakani’s next film, titled Kitna , in which I play an offbeat dual role. In July, I will start shooting for Laila O Laila , a Malayalam film with Mohan Lal,” says Amala.

Last seen in Bala’s Paradesi (2013), Vedhika went on to do a hit Malayalam film Sringaravelan opposite Dileep for director Jose Thomas. Following this, the actor has just completed all her portions in Kaaviya Thalaivan under the direction of Vasanthabalan. “Being a period film, my role has been a challenging one. But, playing it has given me a great sense of achievement. It is diametrically opposite to what I did in Paradesi,” says Vedhika who cannot reveal much about the character she plays in the film. “As for my next move, I have signed a couple of films each in Tamil and Malayalam, but it is a bit too early to talk about them. Let the producers make the announcement first,” states Vedhika.
