Is Sai Pallavi the correct choice?
In Kalki 2898AD, Deepika Padukone played Sumati, she is the hope for carrying humanity forward, in her stomach a saviour is going to be born who can defeat the mighty powerful Yaskin. This role required grace and humility from the actor, Deepika pulled it off with ease, and now if Sai Pallavi accepts the role, she would be the perfect choice for the role.
Sai Pallavi has already shot for Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, she played the goddess Sita role in that film. With that experience in her kitty, she could be the best choice right now for Nag Ashwin, so he choosing to approach her makes complete sense.
A female centric film
Nag Ashwin made Mahanati with Keerthy Suresh in 2019, that film is a biography of actress Savitri. Released as a tribute to the legendary actor, Mahanati became the biggest hits of tollywood in the year 2019, it collected over 100 crores at the worldwide box office.
Now, Nagi wanting to make another female-centric film is no surprise, because he already has a hit film under his belt in this category.
