Priyamani will be seen opposite Ajay Devgn in ‘Maidaan’.
Priyamani is once again back in action with Ajay Devgn-starrer sports drama Maidaan. The actor has acted in both Bollywood and South Korean films. However, she has had fewer opportunities when it comes to working alongside A-listers in Tollywood and Kollywood. In a recent interview, Priyamani opened up about the same.
Priyamani opened up about not getting roles from big actors.
During her interaction, Priyamani was asked the reason behind not working with top Tamil and Telugu actors. She said, “I have also wondered why I was not cast alongside A-listers. I think the question is still unanswered. It should be asked of the directors and producers.”
She is happy with the work she is doing.
“In all honesty, I am not trying to find fault with anybody, but I have heard from a lot of people that they don’t want to cast me opposite them, along with them, or in the film because of the fact that ‘I might eat them up’. This is the thing I have been hearing. I know it is not true, but I still don’t know what the exact reason is. But that’s okay. Whatever the reason, I am absolutely fine. I am very happy and content with where I am.”
She has a decent career in Bollywood.
Priyamani made her acting debut with the Telugu film Evaru Atagaadu. She debuted in the Hindi film industry with Mani Ratnam’s Raavan.
