Shriya to play a slum woman

Shriya Saran is back in the consciousness of Tollywood with four projects in recent times: ‘Gautamiputra Satakarni’, ‘Paisaa Vasool’, ‘Gayatri’ (February 9th release) and ‘Veera Bhoga Vasantha Rayalu’. She is also doing a couple of interesting projects in Tamil and Hindi.  

Her newest project is a woman-oriented one. The story revolves around her character. Debutante Sujana will direct this movie about a working woman living in an urban slum. Shriya plays a quirky yet innocent woman in this untitled project.  

“We are ready with the storyboard. We will be done with the set designs in the coming days. Our film will be shot from March,” Sujana says.  

Maestro Ilayaraja and VS Gnana Shekar have been signed up to compose the music and crank the camera, respectively. The much-happening Sai Madhav Burra, who also wrote the dialogues for Shriya’s two other films (read ‘Gopala Gopala’ and ‘GPSK’), will pen the lines.
