Ranveer Singh, who is enjoying the success of Dhurandhar, is reportedly going to begin shooting his next film, Pralay. According to reports, Malayalam actress Kalyani Priyadarshan is set to star opposite

him, and the unconfirmed news has already generated significant buzz on social media. Amid this chatter, Kalyani opened up about working in Hindi films and how good stories always find her.

“I don’t know how to explain this, but good stories have always found me, whatever the language is. I’ve always said that I’m a very greedy actor when it comes to scripts. If there’s a good script, whichever language it is in, whether it’s Marathi, Hindi, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu or Malayalam, I want it. Obviously, I’m one person, and I can’t shoot 10 movies at the same time, and there are 100 great scripts out there. But this is where I’m at,” Kalyani said, as quoted by Hindustan Times.

\n\n\n

The actor added, “If you ask me about Hindi, I would love to do Hindi films as well, but it’s all for me about the script and about telling good stories. I’ve never looked at language as a barrier, especially when it comes to films and storytelling. I’ve always believed that the one thing that’s very universal is emotion. That’s why now there is such a thing as pan-Indian films. You can see people from all languages watching different language films because your emotions still translate even if the words don’t.”

\n\n

Kalyani’s last film, Lokah, was a massive success. Asked if more offers have started pouring in after Lokah, Kalyani said, “I can’t say if it’s increased or decreased, but it’s always been there. The only thing is I’m one person, and I like giving my time to a film wholeheartedly. That’s what happened with Lokah, too, as I did nothing else when I was working on that film. Because of that, I can’t say yes to every good script that comes my way.”

Kalyani also gave an update on the Lokah universe and said, “We always knew how the film series ends and the general structure of how to get there. Last I heard, Dominic had started writing the script, and he had the first couple of scenes sort of sketched out. And it’s funny because almost every week, we call him up asking what’s happening.”
