Co-starring Sivaji, this promises to be a bold, intriguing new avatar for Telugu cinema fans.
Laya’s Bold New Persona
“Laya’s Secrets Revealed: Though she appears soft, there’s a shocking side within!” is a fitting teaser for actress Laya’s latest venture. She is set to captivate audiences with her distinct portrayal in the upcoming crime-comedy family thriller, ‘Sampraadayini Suppini Suddhapusani’, co-starring Sivaji.
Directed by Sudheer Sriram and produced by Bunny Vas and Vamsi Nandipati, this film marks a significant collaboration, following their legacy of classic entertainers like ‘Missamma’, ‘Adirindayya Chandram’, and ‘Tata Birla Madhyalo Laila’. Bunny Vas and Vamsi Nandipati, fresh off successes such as ‘Little Hearts’ and ‘Raju Wed’s Rambhai’, are releasing the film in theaters in association with ETV Win. The movie was also personally produced by actor Sivaji under the Sri Sivaji Productions banner, presented by Rikki in partnership with ETV Win. Set for release on March 6th, the recently unveiled trailer has already generated considerable buzz.
In ‘Sampraadayini Suppini Suddhapusani’, Laya will portray a selfish character, a role that promises a fresh experience for the audience and a significant departure from her usual roles.
Speaking about her involvement, Laya praised director Sudheer Sriram, saying, “He penned the story exceptionally well and executed it with equal clarity. He is truly a director with immense clarity, delivering a hilarious film. He knew exactly what he wanted and extracted precisely that performance from the actors. He is an uncompromising and highly talented director.”
Embracing Diverse, Stronger Roles
Describing her character, Laya shared, “In this movie, I’ve portrayed a character unlike anything I’ve done before, one that feels entirely new even to me. Until now, I’ve been recognized for either making others cry or crying myself. However, in ‘Sampraadayini Suppini Suddhapusani’, I’m the one who will make others cry. I thoroughly enjoyed performing this role. In essence, it’s the character of a selfish woman, solely focused on her husband and family’s well-being. I believe this portrayal will resonate deeply with the audience.”
Reflecting on her career choices, she added, “Lead roles are not permanent, but I will certainly take them if offered. Likewise, if I find the story and my character appealing, I’m open to even smaller roles. Often, the scope for female characters is limited, so I aim to pick the best ones available. Having already portrayed many soft characters, I’m now eager to take on stronger roles. Although I appear gentle, my actions are quite resolute.”
This desire for diverse roles is evident in her upcoming projects. Audiences will witness another dimension of her in the psychological thriller ‘Vadala’, where she plays Jagapathi Babu’s wife. She is also working on a socio-fantasy film with Srikanth, directed by Nageswara Reddy, reminiscent of ‘Yamaleela’. Laya concluded, “I am actively trying my hand at different genres like these.”
Looking Ahead
Laya’s bold pivot promises to redefine her legacy. From ‘Vadala’ to the ‘Yamaleela’-esque film, her commitment to diverse roles is undeniable. This new avatar is set to challenge perceptions, guaranteeing compelling cinematic experiences for the eager Telugu audience. Get ready to witness Laya’s spectacular new innings!
