Ramya Krishnan dresses like the late Jayalalithaa in new photos shared from the set of Queen season 2. The actor began filming the web series in May.

Actor Ramya Krishnan is filming the second season of the web series Queen, which is based on the life of the late Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, J. Jayalalithaa. Her co-star Sonia Aggarwal shared new photos from their shoot, in which Ramya can be seen in a look very similar to that of Jayalalithaa’s. Many fan accounts shared Ramya’s new pics on social media.

Queen, directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon and Prasath Murugesan, stars Ramya as Sakthi Seshadri – a character inspired by former Tamil Nadu CM, and actor Jayalalithaa. The show documents her life as a school-going girl, a teenager, and when she joined politics, taking over MG Ramachandran’s place after his demise.

A production of MX Player, the series is being jointly directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon and Prasath Murugesan. Before the release of the first season, Gautham said in a media interaction that he wasn’t sure if Ramya would be interested in being a part of the project.

“It came to me as the inspiring story of a woman who was forced to quit school, and went on to become successful in films, and later, in politics. I hoped Ramya Krishnan would accept the project, but was not sure if she would, as it’s a web series, but the writing convinced her, I think,” he told The News Indian Express.
