Shedding clothes is no crime: Priyamani

 

Priyamani is clear about one thing. That is- “One has to be professional when it comes to work.” The actress says she can’t say no when filmmakers ask her to wear skimpy costumes to add glamour to a particular song or scene.
“Acting is my career. I am pursuing it with passion. And I can’t be reluctant to the professional demands of my director. Moreover, there is nothing wrong in wearing a bikini or other skimpy attires, as many of my predecessors have set a trend in it,” she says.

Saying that most actresses ranging from Aishwarya Rai to Bipasha Basu have appeared in a bikini, Priyamani says, “Even yesteryear stars like Saroja Devi and Padmini had acted in contemporary roles.”
The ‘Paruthiveeran’ damsel hopes that ‘Sambo Siva Sambo’, the Telugu remake of Tamil hit ‘Naadodigal’ would be an important film in her career. “The role I am playing has no glamour scenes. But nobody is talking about it,” she says.

Apart from ‘Sambo Siva Sambo’, Priyamani is acting in two other Telugu ventures and one Kannada film. “I am open to offers in Tamil too. But the character should be meaty,” she says.
