Vedika hikes her rates!

Vedika is the slim and beautiful actress who always looks like the much-improved version of Nagma.

Once in a while, she makes an attempt or two to establish herself in Telugu, but with limited success. Then, when Lawrence Raghava approached her for the Tamil/Telugu bilingual 'Muni', she was only too glad to accept it. The film turned out to be an above-average hit in both the languages.

Meanwhile, Simbu was having problems in finding a heroine for his new film. His ill-reputation when it comes to his female-costars had made many leading heroines nervous about acting with him.

Vedika came forward. But suddenly, her rates have shot up. There are talks that she wants Rs 15 Lakhs to act in the role. It also seems that the team is ready to give her that kind of salary.

Something wrong with 'Don'?

There is something strange happening on the sets of 'Don'. Director Lawrence Raghava first picked up Mamata Mohandas as the heroine and then removed her abruptly.

The reason given was- she couldn't act properly. Now, another actress too found herself out of the film for mysterious reasons.

The success of 'Evadaithey Nakenthi' rescued Rajashekar's career from oblivion. It also made a star out of Mumaith Khan. Until then, Maumaith was only an item dancer in Telugu. The film had her in the role of a police officer. Soon, quite a number of offers followed. 'Don' was one of them.

Even before her role began, news came that she was not going to work in the film. There were contradictory reports. Some said that the director had removed her from the film because she was not professional in her attitude.

But she says that she had walked out of the film because she didn't like the way she was treated on the sets.

Strange!
