Bangalore, Aug 22 - After Deepika Padukone and Anushka Sharma, another actress from this city is all set to conquer the Hindi film industry. Priyamani will make her Bollywood debut with Mani Ratnam's 'Ravan'.
'I did not know that I will be a part of the Hindi film till the costume designer came to take my measurement for two sets of costumes. He said he had been instructed to take measurements for both the Tamil and Hindi versions of the film...I wear different dresses in them. I was very happy when this information was revealed to me by Sabyasachi Mukherjee who has been working with Rani Mukerji for Hindi films,' Priyamani told IANS.
'Ravan' stars Bollywoood couple Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai in lead roles and Ratnam has already completed major portions of its shooting.
According to sources, even Priyadarshan is trying to rope in Priyamani for a Hindi film.
Priyamani modelled for several sari ads before she was signed for the Tamil film 'Paruthiveeran', which won her the best actress National Award.
Deepika was the first to make headway in Bollywood with her dream debut in 'Om Shanti Om' opposite Shah Rukh Khan. The film broke box-office records and the young actress hugely benefited from its success -- she landed roles in big banner projects like 'Bachna Ae Haseeno', 'Chandni Chowk To China' and 'Love Aaj Kal'.
Before bagging 'Om Shanti Om', Deepika acted in Kannada film 'Aishwarya'.
After that Yash Raj Films introduced Anushka in their light romantic drama 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi'.
