Last year a ‘wink’ made Priya Varrier a celebrity. In her debut Malayalam movie Oru Adaar Love she had to wink for scene. She did that with delicate movements of her eyebrows. That particular shot was leaked on social media and overnight her followers shot up from a few thousand to 4-5 millions. Priya became talk of nation and became the most most searched person on internet. After all that euphoria her film is releasing on this year’s Valentine’s Day. Importantly she is debuting in hindi film industry with Sridevi Bunglow where she plays a role of a superstar not necessarily Sridevi. But the teaser released recently shows her death in a tub. On enquiring about the similarity with Sridevi’s death in reality Priya said ‘We are not copying any incidents. Though one may feel that my character is on the lines of super actress Sridevi, the movie is totally different. One has to watch the whole film and then can evaluate. We are making en entertaining film which will be liked by the audiences’.
