Trisha has finally started the shoot of her Bollywood dream project Khatta Meeta with Akshay Kumar directed by her mentor Priyadarshan.
The shoot of the film has started in a small town Baramati, 100 kilometres from Pune surrounded by cluster of villages. Says Priyadarshan: “Trisha has two different avatars in the script though it’s not a double role. Her role in the film will be more challenging than the roles that have been played by heroines in my earlier films. It requires her to play two characters in different time periods”.
Anna Singh is designing her wardrobe in the film; with the emphasis on ethnic wear mostly Sari’s and Salwar’s. Priyan is very particular that Trisha be introduced as a North Indian girl in the film, and there are no traces of her south Indian roots.
Priyadarshan also pointed out that unlike his earlier slapstick comedies with Akshay, Khatta Meeta is a family film on the lines of Hrishikesh Mukherjee and Basu Chatterjee films, with lots of scope for Trisha to perform.
Meanwhile Trisha is supposed to have impressed everybody including Akshay Kumar with her Hindi. Before the shoot she had said that she can’t converse in Hindi even though it was her second language in School.
But she has taken the unit of Khatta Meeta by surprise when she spoke fluently in Hindi. Akshay Kumar immediately sent her a bouquet of roses with the note- “ You rock baby”!
