Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez appeared in an item song in Prabhas starrer “Saaho” but that was less of a Telugu film more of a multi-lingual Pan Indian project.
She is debuting in a proper Telugu film now. She will play a princess’s role in the Pawan Kalyan starrer period drama being directed by Krish.
She was roped in to attract the Hindi market. But Krish’s plans may not work as her recent movies in Hindi bombed.
Moreover, her latest Netflix movie Mrs.Serial Killer was mercilessly trolled by one and all. The film is currently streaming on Netflix but it has already been declared dud.
With such a track record, Jacqueline’s casting may not help Krish and his team to sell it to the North Indian market.
The period film is said to be set in 1870. Pawan Kalyan plays the role on the lines of a Robin Hood. The main heroine has not yet been decided but Jacqueline will play the second female lead.
