Anushka Or Samantha, Who Will Grab The Offer?

There is a strong buzz in the film circles that Veteran director Singeetam Srinivasa Rao is all set to helm a film based on the real-life of Nagarathnamma, who was a Carnatic singer. The director has approached Anushka Shetty to play the role of Bangalore Nagarathnamma.

Nagarathnamma started out as a dancer and established herself as a singer all over the south. Other than these, she is also known for her service to the world of Carnatic Music and the Samadhi she built for Tyagaraja in Tiruvaiyaru.

The veteran filmmaker Singeetam Srinivasa Rao is planning to make a biopic on her by keeping the great facts of Bangalore Nagarathnamma in mind. Now, to the most important question, who is going to essay her role on screen?

As per the sources, makers are considering Anushka Shetty to play Nagarathnamma on-screen. With her proven mettle in films such as Arundathee, Baahubali, Rudhramadevi, and other heroine-centric films, Singeetam Srinivasa Rao feels that she is a perfect choice for the role.

But, it remains to be seen whether she gives her nod for the project or not. As per some reports, makers are going to approach Samantha to play this role if Anushka fails to accept the project.

Further details are awaited.
