Summary
- Aishwarya Lekshmi clarified she is not part of the upcoming film Raaka.
- Reports had suggested her potential involvement, possibly in a negative role.
- Raaka marks the first collaboration between Allu Arjun and director Atlee.
Actress Aishwarya Lekshmi has explicitly refuted reports connecting her to the upcoming film Raaka, starring Allu Arjun and directed by Atlee. In a recent statement, Lekshmi clarified that she is not involved in the project, despite prior speculation about her potential casting, including a possible negative role.
Raaka is generating significant anticipation as it represents the first on-screen collaboration between Allu Arjun and director Atlee. The film boasts an impressive cast across its dual timelines. Mrunal Thakur is set to lead the contemporary storyline, while the historical Vedic segment features prominent actresses Deepika Padukone, Janhvi Kapoor, and Rashmika Mandanna. Furthermore, Shah Rukh Khan is expected to make an extended cameo appearance.
In the Puranic Vedic era, Deepika Padukone is reportedly playing a pregnant woman fighting for survival, whose narrative intersects with Rashmika Mandanna's character, a guide. Janhvi Kapoor is slated to portray a tribal queen in the ancient timeline. This film marks Deepika Padukone's second collaboration with director Atlee, following Jawan, but her first with Allu Arjun.
Plot details for Raaka remain under wraps, though a recent teaser hinted at a 'global triumph.' The film's creators previously released a '37' hint, adding to the mystery. Aishwarya Lekshmi's next confirmed project is #Love, alongside Arjun Das.
