Padmapriya to feel butterflies

Padmapriya may not be a popular name in Telugu films though she made her debut with the Telugu film Seenu Vasanthi Lakshmi. But she became more popular in Tamil and Malayalam. Now she will be again seen in a Telugu film Andari Banduvaya by Chandra Siddhartha. However, it is her Hindi release that makes her feel butterflies in stomach. Striker is her first Hindi film in which she pairs opposite Boys Siddharth.
In Striker Siddharth plays a carrom player and Padmapriya is his romantic interest. Set to release in Hindi and Telugu on the 5th of February, the film is important for her as she hopes to bounce back in Telugu and make a strong entry in Hindi.
The actress with great acting potential is a trained Bharatanatyam dancer. After Thavamai Thavamirundhu she lost touch with Tamil audience.
Hope she strikes the right chords with her Striker this time.
