Sounding excited about sharing screen space with legendary superstar in the upcoming ���Kochadaiyaan���, Rukmini Vijayakumar talks about the comfort levels she shared with director Soundarya.���I found Soundarya very intelligent, open-minded and honest, which made me feel very comfortable working with her. She had no airs, despite being the daughter of a superstar,��� she reveals.
Despite being part of an ensemble cast with many big names, Rukmini seems unfazed by the experience. ���Since I���m a relative newcomer to the industry, I didn���t really know much about the big names in the industry. However, it sure is very exciting to be playing Rajni���s sister in the film, and equally exciting to be part of a 3D film for the first time,��� she says.
Having made her debut in the 2008 film ���Bomallattam���, followed by a role in Gandhi Krishna���s romantic film ���Ananda Thandavam��� in 2009, Rukmini justifies her three-year hiatus.
���I was not thinking of making a serious career out of films, since I already had my dance performances keeping me busy apart from my dance company, and have been very choosy about my film roles so far. However, I am always open to taking up good offers if they come my way in future,��� she explains.
Rukmini was in the city to participate at the Sri Sakthi India Leadership Summit at Le Meridien on Saturday.
