Actress Neetu Chandra has turned down the superhit reality show Bigg Boss 4 after landing herself a big-budget Tamil film.
Director Ameer Sultan, who has given the Tamil film industry three award-winning jubilee hits in a row, has signed the Bollywood siren in the lead for his next ambitious venture Aadhi Bhagavan opposite Kollywood superstar Jayam Ravi.
"Though the Bigg Boss offer was lucrative and tempting, Neetu won't be able to participate as she has to leave for Ameer Sultan's shoot in Pattaya (Thailand) this week," said her publicist Dale Bhagwagar.
Ever since she began discussions for the film last month, the 26-year-old Neetu has been learning Tamil with a tutor giving her two hours of lessons each day.
Neetu, best known for his role in Madhur Bhandarkar's Traffic Signal, had become a hot favourite to enter the reality show due to a recent controversy.
Pakistani actress Veena Malik had accused Neetu of having direct links with her ex-boyfriend and Pakistani bowler Mohammad Asif, who is currently embroiled in a match fixing controversy.
