Anushka Shetty’s Bollywood debut on the backburner!

Anushka Shetty’s fan base has grown leaps and bounds, thanks to her spectacular portrayal of Devasena in the film Baahubali 2. Ever since the Bollywood filmmakers have seen her contribution to the magnum opus, offers have been flooding in for Shetty. It goes without saying that although she has played numerous parts in the past, the character of Devasena will be something that she will cherish for life.

From all the offers that she has received from Bollywood directors, nothing has materialized as yet. But, filmmaker E Niwas had roped her in for one of his films, which would have been Shetty’s debut in Bollywood. But unfortunately, the project has been delayed due to reasons that are best known to the makers.

On the topic of Anushka’s debut film being shelved, E. Niwas said “That movie is not happening right now. It’s about a juvenile and has to have a newcomer. We couldn’t work around both these things. The budgets couldn’t be worked out either. Anushka is now a star all over India and not just down south. It would be a great experience to work with her. Right now, the project is on a backburner,”

This is indeed a saddening news. Seems like she will be tending to her commitments back home for the time being.
