Lakshmi Rai Hopes Big About Kalpana

Belgaum girl Lakshmi Rai who is making it big in other three South Indian films has been occasionally acting in Kannada films. Now, she is working with Real Star Upendra in the film “Kalpana’ directed by Ram Narayan. The film is the remake of Tamil hit Kanchana in Kannada. “The film was a trendsetter in Telugu and Tamil, I hope it will repeat the success,” she says.

“It gave me some helpful acting tips,” Lakshmi Rai says. Meanwhile, she has participated in the shooting of the film held in Bengaluru and also in Chennai.

Meanwhile, the actress who can speak fluently in Kannada has been in news as some producers have approached her to do a Hindi film titled as “Bhindi Bazaar’. Though she is quite busy in the South Indian film industry, Lakshmi Rai wants to take up her Bollywood debut quite seriously. She has already started toning up her body and has also tried different type of looks for her first Hindi venture.

“Of course, I listened to the script from the makers of Bhindi Bazaar, but I did not sign it, since I want to begin by B-town stint with a bang,” she adds. To realize her dream, she shed some calories by spending more time in Gym and is following a strict dietary regimen for the glowing, curvy look. “I want to look my best in my B-town splash since the first impression is always the best,” she points out. Meanwhile, Lakshmi Rai’s forthcoming Telugu venture Adhinayakudu is also hitting screens shortly. In this film the lanky actress is sharing screen space with Telugu super star Balakrishna.
