After Savitri biopic, Keerthy Suresh denies being part of Jayalalithaa biopic
Keerthy Suresh is basking in glory of the super success of Mahanati, the Savitri biopic with her in the lead. However, answering to questions on Jayalalitha biopic by media, she has denied signing for any such a film.
Keerthy Suresh is on a career high, thanks to the phenomenal response to her latest film Mahanati, a biopic on legendary Telugu actor Savitri. The Nag Ashwin directed film, which has been released in Telugu and Tamil, has earned both critical acclaim and commercial success.
On Tuesday, Keerthy visited Tirupati where she had a brief interaction with the media. Reacting to a question about whether she has signed a biopic on the life of late Tamil Nadu CM J Jayalalithaa, Keerthy said she hasn’t signed any new project since the release of Mahanati.
“I’m currently occupied with my other commitment. I haven’t signed any new biopic or a new film for that matter,” she said. Basking in the terrific run of Mahanati at the ticket window, Keerthy has joined the sets of Thalapathy 62, which marks her second time collaboration with actor Vijay after last year’s Bairavaa. According to the industry grapevine, Keerthy joined the sets of Thalapathy 62 on Sunday.

The team is currently shooting a song which is being picturised on Vijay and Keerthy. Gearing up for Diwali 2018 release, Thalapathy 62 also stars Varalaxmi Sarath Kumar and Radha Ravi in pivotal roles. It is being rumored that Varalaxmi may be seen playing a negative role in the film, which is currently being filmed in Chennai.
Keerthy currently awaits the release of Vikram’s Saamy Square, a sequel to Saamy. Meanwhile, there are reports that Keerthy might be signed for SS Rajamouli’s next film with Ram Charan and Jr NTR. However, Keerthy is yet to clarify these reports.
