And it's not difficult to see why if you've followed her career after her sensational debut with Premam in 2015. Here are five reasons why fans can't get enough of Sai Pallavi. 1. She can act: That should be a given if you're in the film industry, but it's sadly not so. If she played a sensible teacher in Premam, in Kali, her second Malayalam film, she played Anjali, a young woman on a nightmarish road trip with her husband. She can't drive but is forced to get behind the wheel when she's trapped by a goon. Anjali's screams and her terrified face will push you to the edge...

CrimeThe advertisement had allegedly asked aspirants to deposit money if they wanted to act in Sekhar Kammula's upcoming film.Tnm StaffTollywood director Sekhar Kammula has filed a case against a cyber fraudster for allegedly using his name to extort money from aspiring actors. The case came to light after a victim registered a complaint with the Hyderabad police against an online platform for masquerading as Kammula and extorting money for a role in his upcoming movie. The fraudster on Quikr and Olx had allegedly put an ad stating that Tollywood director Sekhar Kammula was scouting for fresh faces for his upcoming movie. The ad, which was posted with bank details, demanded that a fee between Rs 1,500 to Rs 1,800 be deposited for an opportunity. Many aspiring actors allegedly deposited the money, banking on the success of many of Sekhar Kammula’s films like Happy Days and Fidaa, which cast fresh faces on screen. The complainant deposited the money and waited for the offer. However, it didn’t materialise. Next, he directly approached the director at his office, to the latter's surprise. He came to know that neither was Kammula directing a new film and nor had he offered the job through an advertisement. The victim, on realising that he had been cheated, filed a case with the Hyderabad cyber crime police on Tuesday. Speaking to Tnm, K.C.S. Raghu Vir, Assistant Commissioner of Police with Cyber Crime, said, “The plot came to light when the victim approached the director seeking the opportunity. Sekhar Kammula was shocked to see how his name was being used to collect money online. The website ran for around 25 days, and this is the first such case being reported. We are sure there are many more victims that have fallen into the trap.” The Cyber Crime wing has booked a case under 165 (C), 165(D) of the It Act along with Section 420 of the Ipc (cheating) against the accused. Once traced, the accused will also be booked under the charge of impersonation.

InterviewSai Pallavi opens up about 'Karu', playing a mother so early on in her career, and the love she received from the Tamil audience for 'Premam'.Haricharan PudipeddiIn 2015, she won our hearts as Malar teacher in the Malayalam coming-of-age drama Premam. Last year, as the fiery, independent Bhanumati in Telugu romantic drama Fidaa, a Sekhar Kammula film, she proved she’s no one film wonder with her applause-worthy performance. As she gets ready for the release of her first Tamil film Karu, a psychological thriller that explores the relationship between a mother and her unborn child, we caught up with Sai Pallavi to talk about her long wait to foray into Tamil filmdom, working with director Al Vijay and her rise to stardom in such a quick span of time. On Karu and playing a mother Sai Pallavi is no stranger to Tamil audiences. Nevertheless, she’s a bundle of nerves as she awaits the release of Karu, which launches her career in Kollywood. “The overwhelming love Tamil audiences gave Premam will always remain special. This love has come with a lot of responsibility too. For all the times I’ve been asked why the delay to foray into Tamil filmdom, the answer would be Karu. I wanted to enter Tamil cinema with a sensible film,” Pallavi says. In the film, Pallavi absolutely had no qualms about playing a mother so early on in her career. “Honestly, I don’t know what kind of roles one should do at what stage in their respective career. When I choose a script, I ensure that I get to contribute to the film in some way and in turn grow as an actor in the process. When I read the script of Karu, there was a spark within and I instantly connected with the story. I was emotionally attached to the story. After we finished shooting, I was so attached to the kid who played my daughter, I wanted to adopt her. That’s how strong my emotional attachment was with the role and the story," she says. Karu touches upon the pro-life and pro-choice debate. A doctor by profession, she said she didn’t accept the offer to make a point. “I don’t have such complicated thoughts while signing a project. I was so moved by the script when I read it, I couldn’t think of a better debut," she says. On working with director Al Vijay Pallavi says she can’t take full credit for her acting. “I’m not a trained actor. I surrender to my directors and they make me act. I also believe God acts through me. If audiences loved me as Bhanumati in Fidaa, I can’t take full credit because my director Sekhar Kammula worked really hard to present me as a Telangana girl. In the case of Karu, I placed my faith in Vijay Sir and he knew what exactly he wanted from me,” she says. Pallavi was supposed to make her Tamil debut with Mani Ratnam’s Kaatru Veliyidai. For reasons unknown, she opted out of the film and was eventually replaced by Aditi Rao Hydari. Did the long wait to do a Tamil film make her restless? “I believe if something is meant to happen, nobody can do anything about it. When I was part of the dance reality show Ungalil Yaar Adutha Prabhudeva, I was flooded with film offers. I was in school then and I wanted to take up films just as an excuse to miss classes, especially Math. My parents asked me what I will do after 5-6 years when offers stop coming, and I didn’t have an answer. That’s when I realised I needed to continue my education and I did Medicine because I was genuinely interested, and not because my parents forced me. Had I taken up acting back then, I don’t know where I’d be today in the industry. I’m not new to the waiting phase. I believe if something is taking time to happen, it’s meant to be that way,” she explains. Despite her delayed Kollywood debut, Pallavi managed to bag two Tamil biggies recently. She currently has Suriya’s Ngk and Dhanush’s Maari 2 in her kitty. “As long as I act, I want to be part of projects that help me discover myself in some way. I don’t want to repeat characters as I enjoy being someone else in front of the camera,” she says, remaining tight-lipped about her role in both the projects. With two blockbusters Fidaa and McA to her credit in 2017, Pallavi says she’s not someone who lets box-office numbers worry her. “I never think about the box-office numbers. In my mind, when I take up a project I tell myself that I should live up to the full potential of my character,” she says. Pallavi’s next release will be Karu, which has been dubbed in Telugu as Kanam. The film also stars Naga Shaurya and child artist Veronica.

Sai Pallavi essays the mother. The movie touches upon the issue of abortion and I can’t reveal anything more at this point of time,” he said, adding he had been hell-bent on working with Pallavi from the beginning. “Right from the beginning, I was very confident that Sai would be able to pull it off. I watched Premam as well as Kali. I loved her performance in both. She was very impressive in the latter. She has done a wonderful job in Karu.” Pallavi, after impressing Telugu audiences with her own dubbing, will also dub in her own voice for Karu, which will also release in Telugu as Kanam, and also stars Naga Shourya.
