Bold and Beautiful Nitya Menon
Nitya Menon
has many plus points. She is cute, she acts well, she can dub for
herself, she can sing and also she is bold to say what she thinks.
Sometimes the last characteristic might have made her face controversy
but people understand when a true statement is made.
Some
time ago she asked who Prabhas is. It caused protest from the fans of
Prabhas. She was called arrogant. But later Prabhas sent her CDs of some
of his Movies to Nitya and talked to her over phone that cooled the
issue to subside. Nitya new to Telugu cinema was really not aware of
Prabhas and it was not her mistake. If someone asks whether she was
acting with Prabhas whom she didn’t know, it is quite natural to
question back who is Prabhas.
Again
another recent statement of Nitya made her controversial. When some
film makers approached her to act opposite a senior actor she refused
the offer for which she has all the rights apart from reasons. She says
that she has two reasons for not accepting senior heroes.
Number
one is Nitya feels that the senior heroes get major exposure leaving
small screen space and importance to the heroines. It is her opinion or
observation for which no one can object as she has to look after her
career the way others do.
Second
one is an interesting reason which is also a bold statement from someone
like Nitya. She says that the chemistry doesn’t work out with senior
actors. Heroines are also human beings. They are not robots to act in
intimate scenes with someone they don’t like. Although all that is
acting, personal choices cannot be ruled out. She needs a good feel when
she acts with an actor which is a natural demand and should not be
criticized for that.
But
unfortunately her declaration in the media that she will not act with
senior actors was misunderstood! She has all the liberty in the world to
romance with a man of her choice even if it is in camera and for a
price!
