Raai Laxmi To Burn The Screen As A ‘Sexy Teacher’

Raai Laxmi has not appeared much in last five years in the Telugu industry. She has done just three ‘special songs’ in all — Lucky Lucky Rai (Balupu), Tauba Tauba (Sardaar Gabbar Singh) and Ammadu Let’s do Kummudu (Khaidi No 150. And the actress burned the screen, shaking a leg with Tollywood superstars Ravi Teja, Pawan Kalyan and Chiranjeevi respectively.

And now, she will be seen playing the role of a sexy teacher. Laxmi is all set for a comic caper directed by a debutant, featuring relatively unknown comedians, Praveen and Madhu Nandan. “I loved the script; it had me in splits all through. It’s the perfect blend of comedy, horror and will be total paisa vasool”, says the actress.

The movie is titled as Where Is The Venkata Lakshmi which is directed by Kishore Kumar. It also has actors Poojitha Ponnada and Karthik in brief roles. “The film is set in a village and I play a sexy school teacher, a la Sushmita Sen in Main Hoon Na. So you’ll see me wearing a lot of chiffon sarees. The story revolves around my character, while Praveen and Madhu drive the narrative forward with their antics, amidst rival gangs of villains slugging it out,” explains the actress.

Other than this, she has one more Telugu film in her kitty in which she plays a larger-than-life cop. “This untitled film is an action thriller based on the Nirbhaya rape case. Karri Balaji is directing the film. I play a cop and Anjali plays the victim. My character is very similar to what Rani Mukherjee played in Mardaani,” added Laxmi.
