She is quoted saying, “I had bumped into Rajamouli sir at an airport and I begged him that whatever part he has for me, I will do it. That time he had not cast for the girl yet. He said he was anyway talking about my timelines. So I told him whatever be the timelines, I will make it happen. We made it happen.”
