Richa Gangopadhyay's shortcut to Bollywood

Richa Gangopadhyay, who has had a good innings in Tollywood with hits like ���������Leader��������� and ���������Mirapakaay��������� is on a roll in Kollywood too. The actress is making her Tamil debut opposite Simbu in ���������Osthe��������� (the remake of Salman Khan���������s ���������Dabbang���������) and is at the same time gearing up for her Bollywood debut.
The grapevine has it that Richa has signed on for the Hindi remake of the Tamil hit ���������Tiruttu Payale���������, which will have Neil Nitin Mukesh and Ameesha Patel in the lead. Richa is said to be playing the role that Sonia Aggarwal did in the Tamil version.
Meanwhile, Susi Ganesan, who directed the original, will be at the helm of the Hindi version too. ���������There are talks, but it���������s not confirmed yet. There is a Hindi project on the anvil, but I can���������t reveal anything at the moment,��������� says a tight-lipped Richa.
The actor, meanwhile, is eagerly awaiting the release of her maiden Kollywood film, which is set to hit screens next month. ���������I am reprising Sonakshi���������s character in the Tamil version. Director Dharani has modified my role to suit the Tamil audience. The shoot for ���������Osthe��������� is over. Only the ���������Pondatti...��������� song is left. Simbu is fabulous to work with. I have also completed a film with Dhanush titled ���������Mayakkam Enna���������. It���������s an unconventional romantic drama and my role has shades of the character Sonia Aggarwal played in ���������Kadhal Kondein���������.���������
Here in Tollywood, Richa has signed her next Telugu project as well. ���������I have signed a new film opposite Prabhas in which I will have two very distinctive looks,��������� she signs off.
