Shriya may not act in Marmayogi


It looks like Shriya may not be able to act in Kamal Haasan's Marmayogi owing to her extremely busy schedules. Marmayogi is directed and produced by Kamal Haasan, who also plays the protagonist. Many were considered for the role of the heroine, Shriya being one among them.

While speaking on this matter, Shriya said that she is really happy and excited about her name being discussed for Marmayogi, and like all heroines of Kollywood, she too wants to act alongside Kamal Haasan. She said if she gets to act in Marmayogi, she would achieve the status of having acted with the “Twin Stalwarts” of Kollywood, as she has already acted with Rajinikanth in Sivaji. But Shriya said she is afraid this will not take place as she already has her hands full, juggling with films in Tamil, Hindi, and English (Kanthaswamy in Tamil; Ek and Mission Istanbul in Hindi; The Other End of the Line and What is cooking? in English). She had also signed up a film with Dhanush long ago, the shooting of which will begin in December.

She is not confident that she would be able to accept Marmayogi or any other film at present. She quipped she is looking for a miracle to happen which will enable her to act in Marmayogi despite her overloaded call sheet.

Shriya - Success from Shivaji to Mission Istanbul

Shriya is currently one of the hottest young actresses around - wait until you see her appearance in Mission Istanbul. She also made a big impression last year in Shivaji, alongside Rajnikanth.

This Delhi girl has a touch of class and a beautiful smile that would warm any male heart. She is very modest about her performance in Shivaji, "To be honest," she says, "Rajini sir's heroines can piggy-back ride on his popularity. Thanks to him, I got so much attention and respect from the masses and the industry."

Shriya is multilingual and is currently doing two English movies - The Other End of the Line with Desperate Housewives' Jesse Metcalf and the Deepa Mehta directed What's Cooking. About the Jesse Metcalf movie, she says, "I play a call center girl in Mumbai who goes to San Francisco in search of my love played by the obnoxiously handsome Jesse Metcalfe in The Other End of the Line. I had great fun doing the film!"

It's rumoured that Shriya, who has just finished the much-anticipated Mission Istanbul, has been picked by Kamal Hassan for his next big movie Marmayogi, which will also have an English-language version.
