Looks like Priya Prakash Varrier, who shot to overnight fame after her wink in a song went viral, will be stepping into the Telugu film industry soon. Her debut movie will be the Malayalam Oru Adaar Love, which is set to release on February 14 to coincide with Valentine’s Day. This film is being dubbed and released in Telugu as Lover’s Day. Recently, the gorgeous actor was in Hyderabad for the promotions of Lover’s Day and created quite a stir. She was the cynosure of all eyes. While fans went into a frenzy, filmmakers seem to be queuing up to sign her up for their films. Going by all the attention she is getting, Priya Prakash Varrier may soon be inking a deal in Tollywood.

Sources in the know say that director Vikram Kumar has approached Priya for his next film. Nani is already onboard this project and if Priya accepts, they might be sharing screen space. Also, this will be Priya’s first direct Telugu film.

Megha Akash was reported to be in talks with Vikram Kumar for this project but now Priya Prakash’s name has been thrown into the ring as well. An official announcement on the heroine is expected to be out once the deal is struck.

Yet another interesting development about this yet to be titled film is that it will also feature Siddharth in the star cast. But the star will be playing the main antagonist. Sources in the know say that Siddharth accepted the role as it would give him enough scope for performance.

Reports say that this Nani starrer will belong to the horror genre. Interestingly, Vikram Kumar had directed the 2009 Yavarum Nalam / 13B, a psychological horror flick which had turned out to be a smash hit. The film starred R Madhavan and Neetu Chandra as the lead pair.
