Karthiga wants no comparison

Karthiga, the leading lady in Ko, is in cloud nine as her debut film has been declared a hit. The debutant, while speaking about her experience in her first film, made one request to the media – that is not to compare her with her mother Radha or aunt Ambika. The young lady says that she knows that comparisons are inevitable in this industry but requested the media to refrain from it as it will help her perform better.

Karthiga said that working with a director like KV Anand helped her to know the nuances of acting and all credits for her performance in Ko should go to him. She also added that her mother and aunt were instrumental in polishing her performance by giving her tips on acting.

Swathi in Anjali’s place

Sasi Kumar and Samuthrakani had a lot of problems over finalizing the leading lady for Poraali. Director Samuthrakani had earlier signed up Anjali to play the lead role but she opted out owing to certain differences with the director.

This stalled Poraali’s progress for sometime but everything seems to have turned fine now with Sasi Kumar and Samuthrakani deciding on going back to their favorite actress Swathi. It may be noted here that Swathi played the female lead in Sasi Kumar’s smash hit flick Subramaniapuram.

Poraali’s shooting is slated to begin soon and will be filmed in Madurai and Theni areas. The shooting will progress at a breakneck speed as both Sasi Kumar and Samuthrakani wants to complete it soon.
