Upendra to romance Shriya Saran?

A lot of buzz has been generated around Real Star Upendra’s forthcoming film Uppi 2. The movie was announced a few months back, and although it was evident from the word go that Upendra will be playing the male lead, there have been several names doing the rounds when it comes to female lead. Sources have now revealed that Tamil star Shriya Saran might be in the running.
The buzz in Gandhinagar is that the makers of Uppi 2 are seriously considering casting the Sivaji star. They are said to have approached the actress and talks are reportedly on.
If sources are to be believed, then several big actresses such as Vidya Balan, Parineeti Chopra and Alia Bhatt were approached to star in Uppi 2. Apart from them, Australian model-turned-actress Kristina Akheeva was also reportedly being considered for the film. Now only time will tell if Shriya will make her comeback to Sandalwood with Uppi 2. Kannada audiences last saw her in the Kannada-Tamil bilingual Chandra, in which Shriya was paired opposite Prem.
