Linda Arsenio, who plays the foreigner who empathises with the locals in the movie, is so in real life too, and says she is in love with Kerala and its people.
Linda has a major role in Dam999 too where she plays the heroic TV journalist.So how did she end up in Malayalam? Linda started off in Tamil and Telugu with a few guest appearances but gained a foothold with Kabool Express, Mumbai Salsa and Aloo Chaat in Bollywood."I seem to have an invisible connection with Kerala.
I'm in love with this land and people and was often asked to come here for work and shooting," says Linda.
She is involved in an unnamed Hollywood film as well.But what is important to her is to give quality work and work with quality people, she says, irrespective of the language. "It has been an honour to work with such reputed actors. As for Dam999, it's the opportunity of a lifetime.

Linda is currently based in Mumbai, and says she floats back and forth between India and the US but wants to be in India and nowhere else.
