Model turned actress, Shubra Aiyappa is all set to make her debut in Tollywood this year. She’ll soon be seen in Nara Rohit-starrer Prathinidhi in which she’s playing the role of a journalist. While it’s not yet clear when the film is going to release, we hear that Shubra has signed yet another Telugu film.

“I’m playing Arvind Krishna’s romantic interest in my next Telugu film. It’s a romantic comedy and I’m lucky to be working with a wonderful team,” Shubra says. The film’s shooting recently began in Hyderabad and Veera Prasad is weilding the microphone for this one. “I’m playing quite a serious role in Prathinidhi and I wanted to do something different this time. I can’t talk much about the role, but I can say that it’s going to be a sweet film,” she adds.

The actress was supposed to make her debut in YVS Chowdhary’s Rey; however, she opted out of the project soon after she signed it. “That was quite unfortunate. In fact, I was happily doing modelling and TV commercials, when YVS Chowdhary saw my portfolio. I became an actor by chance when he called me for an audition. And then more people approached me after that. I’m here to stay,” she avers.

Ask her what she likes about Tollywood and Hyderabad which makes her come back again and again, she confesses, “I’m a Bangalorean and I’ve a soft corner for South Indians. What I love most about Hyderabad is its relaxed pace of life and food. Besides, people are extremely nice. I would love to do more Telugu films in future.
