Mannara to flaunt her comic side

Mannara Chopra is in the mood for some fun. While Tollywood has seen only the glamorous side of the actress hitherto, her forthcoming film ‘Thikka’, starring Sai Dharam Tej, will feature her in a new light. The Mumbai actress has decided to try her hand out at comedy and explore the space to prove her versatility.

Apparently, Mannara, who is known for her quick wit and charm in real life, pulled off the role with aplomb. While her performance in glam roles has been well appreciated, she’s hoping to recreate the magic with her comic timing.

A source close to the unit reveals, “The film’s director Sunil Reddy believes Mannara’s comic timing is untapped. Since it’s a light-hearted role with multiple shades, Mannara, with her great sense of coming timing, did justice to her role. She thoroughly enjoyed working on the new yet challenging role and the audience can look forward to a laughathon.”

Meanwhile, the ‘Zid’ actress turns a busy bee in Tollywood with as many as three projects in her kitty including Puri Jagannadh’s ‘Rogue’ and Sunil-starrer ‘Jakkanna’.
