After Kumki’s successful run at the box office, director Prabhu Solomon decided to make a film on the devastative Tsunami. He wanted to rope in a South Indian actress for the role and zeroed in on Anandhi.

When Prabu Solomon approached her for the role, she instantly accepted it as the script demanded a lot from her. The actress says that her character in the film is completely opposite to her character in real life.

She also added that she doesn’t mind playing a village based role when there is a lot of scope for her to perform. She thinks that Kayal would be the best film to display her skills.
