Vijayalakshmi Has Replaced Ileana

Vijayalakshmi has replaced Ileana in Soundarya Rajinikanth's animated film Sultan- the Warrior. She has shot with superstar Rajinikanth in Hyderabad for the animated film.

Says a thrilled Vijayalakshmi: "I was very nervous when I had to shoot with Rajini Sir. But he talked to me, calmed my nerves and put me at ease. It was a great learning process, one of the most memorable days in my life."

Soundarya Rajinikanth had contacted her at Nammakal where she shooting with Jai for Adhe Idam Adhe Neram, when the call came through. Initially she could not believe it, but later she came to grip with it.

Meanwhile Ileana's has confirmed that she has walked out of the project, as the payment was poor. She feels it is better to do Telugu big budget commercial films than do an animated film.
