*Tell us about your character in 'Sarileru Neekevvaru'?*

-- You have an idea about my role in the film by now with the trailer. She is mischievous who is all-over the Hero. My role is extremely dramatic and comical as well. I got an opportunity to do a full-length comedy role in this film.

*Were you playful on the sets too?*

-- I don't like being serious on the sets. I like to be playful. That's why I am jovial with everyone on the sets.

What qualities did you like in Mahesh?-- Mahesh Garu stays very calm and quiet on sets. It's me who always disturbs him.

*Going by Trailer, It seems your role has a peculiar kind of mannerisms?*

-- Yes. 'Meeku Ardham Avutundaa', 'I'm Impressed' mannerisms are there throughout the film. Another one 'Never Before... Ever After' with Sangeetha garu will get a very good reach among the audience.

*Did Director Anil Ravipudi enact every scene before the shoot?*

-- I said only one thing to him. I told him to act and I will copy it. I am a very good copy-cat. I scan whatever he does and did it adding my own style.

*You seem very close to Vijayashanthi garu. How did it happen in such a short time?*

-- I met her for the first time during the Kerala schedule. I knew about her by then. I was scared to talk to Lady Amitabh. I was flattered watching her energy on sets. I was with her for two complete days. She guided me about dance and acting.

*Did Mahesh talk to you about your films while shooting?*

-- Mahesh garu watches most of the films. He said he had seen my Chalo, Geetha Govindam, Dear Comrade.

*Usually, Heroines doesn't have much role to play in Star heroes films. How do you feel doing a solid role in this film?*

-- I am extremely happy. There is a solid reason for why my character behaves like that.

*What is the reason for doing this film?*

-- Anil sir while narrating this script itself, he enacted my role and Sangeetha gari role with mannerisms. I liked it instantly. This film carries a very good feel in it. Acting with Mahesh garu and Vijayashanthi garu is a bonus.

*Tell us about the trailer episode?*

-- I couldn't control my laughter while I was dubbing for those scenes. The entire team was laughing while shooting those scenes. The audience too will enjoy that track in theatres.

*About Mind Block' song?*

-- Everyone was sceptical about my dance on the day that song was shot. I did a small dance bit. Everyone was impressed and excited too. I completely enjoyed dancing with Mahesh garu for that song. You should tell us how it is after watching it in theatres.

*Every Heroine who acted with Mahesh becomes a friend of Sitara...*

-- Sitara, Aadya and I are a gang. If you speak to anyone of us, the remaining two will know about it.

*Chiranjeevi said in the pre-release event whether you have contracted him for your films...*

-- Chiranjeevi garu attended as the guest for 'Chalo' and 'Geetha Govindam' film events. I told him that he is my lucky charm. That's why he told me that. He is such a sweetheart. I wish he will come to all of my events.

*The shoot of this film has been wrapped up very quickly...*

-- Basically, Anil sir has full control over the script. Rathnavelu garu works very fast. He quickly shifts to another scene after completing a scene. Because of the director who has clarity and the team who work real quick, we were able to complete the shoot in a very short time.

*Tell us about your next movies?*

-- At present, I am doing 'Bheeshma' with Nithiin. It is being planned to release in February. I am also doing the film in the combination of Allu Arjun and Sukumar. A couple of films are in discussion stages.
