TIL Desk Bollywood/ Kajol, who will next be seen in the Tamil film Velaiilla Pattadhari 2, titled Lalkar in Hindi, thanked her co-star Dhanush and director Soundarya for breaking her language barrier in the movie.
“They broke this myth in my head that I can’t speak or act in another language. Velaiilla Pattadhari 2 has been one of the most professional experience and the credit goes to Dhanush and Soundary,” Kajol told the media at the trailer and music launch of the film in Mumbai on Sunday.
“I was lied upon saying that you don’t have to speak in Tamil. They proved me wrong the first day because they gave me a long script with two scenes and huge dialogues. They said ‘at least try’,” she adds.
Asked if she was headed towards southern cinema because she was not getting offers in Bollywood, she says, “I always look for good scripts. It doesn’t mean I haven’t got good script in Hindi. It was just that I loved this one.” The event also saw Dhanush, Soundaryaa Rajnikanth, Lata Rajnikanth, Kalappuli Thanu (producer), Amala Paul and Rakesh Omprakash Mehra.
