Neetu Chandra learning Tamil

Actress Neetu Chandra has hit the jackpot, and how! After making her Kollywood debut in Yaavarum Nalam opposite Madhavan, she wowed audiences with her performance as the haughty and spoilt Tejaswini in Theeradha Vilaiyattu Pillai. Now, the latest is that she’s bagged the female lead in Venkat Prabhu’s Mankatha with Ajith and Nagarjuna.

Reportedly the Bollywood actress has now hired a Tamil tutor to learn the language. According to sources, a popular Tamil director has approached the actress to play a prominent role in his next project. Since the director wasn’t comfortable talking in English or Hindi, he wanted her to learn the language fluently. “I recently hired a Tamil tutor who�coaches me�for about two hours every day. He talks to me in Tamil and I write down the words in English and Hindi and then reply in Tamil,” the actress said.
