You would have come across many instances wherein you hear about how the selection of the leading lady rests largely on the hero. This normally happens when a star hero project is on the anvil. Given that, one big movie seems to have a producer’s influence.
We are talking about the movie Naa Peru Surya, Naa Illu India featuring stylish star Allu Arjun and being produced by the handsome Lagadapati Sridhar. Apparently, he has strong connections with the Kannada region and he can speak fluent Kannada.
Given his close relations with Karnataka, it is now being speculated that his hand is there behind getting the Kannada beauty Rashmika Mandana as one of the leading ladies into this project. The film marks the debut of writer Vakkantham Vamsi as the director.
