November 22, 2010 : Preetika Rao is all excited about her debut in Kollywood. For those who doesn’t know the uninitiated, Preetika Rao is the younger sister of Bollywood actress Amrita Rao. And since news about her debut has surfaced in the media, speculations are rife about why the pretty lady chose a smaller industry Kollywood as her debut platform, when her sister is already a known face in Bollywood. In a recent statement to the media, Preetika Rao seems to have cleared the air by stating that she was not left with much option because it was representatives from Kollywood who approached her with a film offer, rather than the other way round. And considering that the offer was made by a certain Manigandan, the girl could hardly refuse.
Preetika Rao will soon be seen on screen in upcoming Tamil film ‘Chikku Bhukku’ directed by Manigandan. According to media reports, Preetika Rao came to Manigandan’s notice when a photo of hers was published in a magazine from Mumbai. The debutant confirms the news saying that she was into part-time modeling and was also the editor with a Mumbai based magazine in the columns of which her photo was published.
Preetika Rao says that she is really lucky to be debuting in a Manigandan film in Kollywood, but is also quick to add that she is open to work in any language and in any film industry inside India.
