Hot actress Nayantara rejected film with Srinivas

Reigning actress Nayantara, who was the first choice of noted director Srinivas for his upcoming Kannada film Swaranjali, has been replaced by Rashmi, who shot to fame with her debut film Duniya (directed by Soori). Srinivas said he met Nayantara in Chennai and spoke to her about his film.


Though the actress liked the story and agreed to act in his film for Rs. 14 lakh, she couldn't make it because of date hassles, he added. Rashmi is said to have accepted the same role for a much lower fee. Nayantara is currently waiting for her next release Aadhavan, directed by K.S. Ravikumar with Suriya as the hero.
