After roping in Nayantara for the role of Uyyalwada Narasimha Reddy’s wife, we hear that many star heroines rejected to come aboard to take the role of temple dancer Lakshmi who falls in love with Uyyalawada and asks him to take her as his concubine. But one did the daring.

Going by the trailer of magnum opus “Sye Raa”, one could see the kind of role director Surender Reddy bestowed on Tamanna. Not just a lover kind of role, but the character has substance as she plunges into war for freedom under the leadership of Uyyalwada. We hear that the trailer has irked some heroines who have missed out this role.

Before Tamanna, a couple of star heroines are offered this role and they rejected it outright. Some rejected the role as they felt that pairing with Chiru might prove tough for their career, while some felt that any role other than Nayantara’s role in the movie will be a second heroine like role.

As we know that Nayantara will not be attending promotions, Tamanna is likely to get more elevation during the media meets too. This is something those star heroines who have rejected the role in Sye Raa would feel bad about.
