Shriya speaks out

Over the years, Shriya has moved seamlessly from Tollywood and Kollywood to Mollywood, Bollywood and even Hollywood. This head-turner who once scorched the screens with a cool 'Mazhai' is now confident about performing complex roles. The gorgeous actress is now busy with her upcoming Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam projects.

“I can even dub for myself now. I can pick up nuances quite easily as I was always imitating my teachers in school. However, South Indian languages are difficult when you’ve grown up in a Hindi-speaking home. And though they sound alike, actually they are vastly different. So often, on the sets of the Telugu film I would ask for tea in Malayalam and the poor chai guys would look so flummoxed,” she revealed.
