"I am looking forward to acting with him," she says. "He is a big star but he never behaves like one. I will be joining the shoot of Stalin in the third week of March."

Her characters, she says, are different in each film. In Pournami, she plays a character who is in disguise in one half. "It's like playing two different characters," she says. "The make-up and looks are different. I have never worn the kind of clothes I wear in this film."

Although she does not divulge much about her role in Stalin, she is confident that in Sainikudu she will have a strong role. She explains, "In Gunasekhar's films, the heroines have a certain character. I have watched all his films and the heroine always has a distinct role."
