Taapsee refutes rumors

Taapsee who was last seen in Arrambam plays a pivotal role in Aishwarya Dhanush’s upcoming film Vai Raja Vai. The rumors mills in K’town are rife that the Aadukalam girl plays a villain role in the film. Taapsee refutes such reports and says, “I play Shreya, an aloof girl who is a regular at casinos. She is neither on the hero’s side nor the villain’s. She does what she is being told to, and has nothing to gain or lose from the hero and the villain’s win or defeat. I’m not playing the villain in the film; there’s Daniel Balaji too in it!”

So, Taapsee is clearly hinting at Daniel Balaji as the villain in the film. Vai Raja Vai has Gautham Karthik and Priya Anand in the lead roles and has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja. “I don’t gamble, and I’m not a big fan of casinos too. I don’t believe in staking your hard-earned money against luck, and don’t advocate it to my friends as well. But, for this film, I had to act like I was a pro-gambler and go around tables placing bets. In fact, this was the first time ever that I entered a casino,” says Taapsee on playing the role of a gambler.
