Malavika Nair: I don’t want to play the clichéd bubbly girl roles

Actress Malavika Nair, who made a promising debut with Cuckoo as a visually challenged girl, has signed her next film in Tamil after nearly three years. Why so choosy? She says, “I was focusing on my studies, and that’s the reason I was not able to listen to scripts after Cuckoo. I did a couple of Telugu films in between. More than all this, I want to do interesting roles and I really do not want to play the clichéd bubbly girl roles.That’s the reason I am very choosy about my films.”
Now, she will be seen opposite Veera in Arasiyalla Idhellam Saadharanamappa, which is being directed by Avinash Hariharan. Malavika is currently shooting for the film in Pondicherry. About her role in this film, she says, “Though I will be portraying a chilled-out urban girl in this film, I have scope to perform, plus, it is an unusual character.”
