There have been reports that Nayanthara had decided to concentrate only on off-beat movies and had said no to glamour. Ask her if these reports are true and she nonchalantly says, “As an actress, I’ve to be versatile. If I think a character would suit me, I would definitely go ahead and grab the offer without any hesitation. I have done girl-next-door roles like that in Yaaradi Nee Mohini and Chandramukhi and glamorous roles like the one in Aegan. And I think I’m lucky to have been able to portray both with efficiency. I’m not bothered about having an ‘image’ in the film industry. I believe that whatever role I take up, I have to do it convincingly. I’m not the one to judge my success. The audience will do it for me.”
So, what after Boss Engira Baskaran? “I’m doing Electra in Malayalam. I’m also in talks with director Prasad for Mathilukalkkappuram. Resul Pookutty and Ravi K Chandran too are part of the technical team of this film, which will have sync sound,” she signs off.
