At the time when Rakul Preet Singh, the svelte beauty of South, is slowly losing her ground with very fewer projects in her kitty, the actress faced another debacle in the form of Dev.

But, the latest reports from Film Nagar will surely surprise you about Rakul Preet. For the first collaboration of leading director Vikram Kumar with Natural Star Nani, the makers (Mythri Movie Makers) are said to have approached Rakul Preet Singh for a special item song. But, an insider reveals that Rakul has demanded a whopping 40 lakhs remuneration for the dance number. The makers, who found her demand too high are yet to finalize Rakul. It remains to be seen if they zero in on her or picks up another beauty!

The film which was launched earlier this week in Hyderabad is going to have Karthikeya, RX100 fame, in a very crucial role. Reportedly, Nani will romance five heroines in this project. Anirudh Ravindran has been roped in to score audio tunes and Mirosla Kuba Brojek will crank the camera.
