This Actress is Going to Play Venkatesh Wife in Asuran Remake?

In a recent interview, Suresh Babu revealed that Srikanth Addala has been roped in to direct the Telugu remake of Tamil blockbuster Asuran which will star Venkatesh in the lead role. But, he didn’t reveal who will play the female lead role.

As per the sources, Srikanth Addala is planning to bring Baahubali and Arundhathi fame Anushka Shetty to play the female lead in Asuran remake. If everything will go accordingly, Anushka Shetty will be playing the role of Venkatesh’ wife in this upcoming film.

In its original version, Manju Warrier played the female lead and made her screen presence as Dhanush’ wife. In the industry, many are saying that though Srikanth Addala is willing to rope Anushka, Suresh Babu is planning to approach Shriya Saran to play the female lead opposite Venkatesh.

The talks are in the final stages and an official announcement regarding this will be made soon. Anushka is also in the search for a challenging role and it is expected that she will give a nod for Asuran remake. The movie will be jointly bankrolled by Suresh Productions and V Creations.

Asuran is based on popular Tamil novel Vekkai, which turned out to be a blockbuster in the Tamil film industry, which collected over Rs 100 crore in gross earnings.
