Screen Talk: Ileana Sits On The Top!

Ileana is being asked to pair up with Tarun shortly for a film that is to be made in the direction of K Vijaya Bhasker. Tarun is playing lead role in it and when Ileana was approached she was sitting on the top in the matter of remuneration, although said the story is wonderful and she is willing to do.

As per grapevine, she is demanding for Rs 75 lakh remuneration and the producers are in the process of bargaining saying that they are not giving that amount for the hero as well. Ileana is now living much in Mumbai to fulfill the desire of acting in Bollywood films.

We have to see if Ileana agrees for this film.

Lagadapati Sreedhar's 'Warm Blessings' For Ileana

Lanco Hills is the affluent venture that was started in Hyderabad where the bookings were over within few days of its launch. Many celebrities also couldn't find any discount in bookings including the early birds. Such was the demand for the flats in that affluent venture.

But it is revealed that Ileana also booked a flat in that and got a discount of 20%. How could she bag that discount? The Film Nagar circles are biting ears that Lagadapati Sreedhar's 'warm blessings' for Ileana resulted in getting 20% discount.

We may not wonder if Sreedhar made an agreement with her to act in a film produced by him in near future-may be with a discount in her remuneration!

Gossip: Pawan Kalyan Slaps Ileana!

Hero Pawan Kalyan slapped heroine Ileana. No, that's not a scene in the film but open for public. He is presently playing the lead role in a Trivikram Srinivas' film.

As his legal battle with his estranged wife Nandita is becoming tough, he appears restive and tense. Though the shooting of the film is taking place with less hype, the news of 'slapping' is making rounds in the industry. It is not new to know about the anger of Pawan Kalyan.

This incident took place most recently. Being very sensitive by nature, Ileana was aghast at his rude behavior and absconded from shooting from the very next day.

Now Trivikram Srinivas is trying to soothe her.

Ileana: 'Green For Bollywood But Not Red For Tollywood'

Ileana is now a happy bird for getting a branch to porch on Bollywood tree. She is now debuting on Bollywood screen with a film to be directed by Inadrajit Lankesh. The finer part is that she is pairing up with the latest heart throb of gals, Shiney Ahuja.

Saying about the film, Ileana says that she never bothers about the industry but only focuses on the story line of the film. She recalls the stupendous success of Pokiri and humbly passes the credit to Mahesh Babu stating that it was his own film. She says that she is no way bidding bye for Tollywood as many are assuming, but only works for all the industries when the story sounds impressive (story or remuneration!!!!).

Ileana also recalled and revealed that at the age of 16 she got the offer to act in Dhairyam beside Nitin but due to other reasons she couldn't do that. Raima Sen did that role and Ileana had to wait till Devadasu for debut.

She says that she is happy for the film 'Rakhi' as per the content and her role in it. She shares her hobbies are watching films at home and reading books. Sidney Sheldon is her favorite writer. She says that to love and be loved are the happiest parts of life for everyone. She adds that her family has given that happiness for her.

Ileana Is Really A 'Beauty With Brain'

While the news of Ileana's item song in Mahesh's 'Athidi' is making rounds in Tollywood we catch-up the girl for clarification. Instead of giving a clear answer the beauty made some remarks on item songs that are quite interesting.

Ileana has no qualms about doing item numbers in films and she has a very valid reason for that.

According to Ileana, item numbers means good money. "They mean good money. If the number I do becomes a huge hit, then that number is practically included in all the stage shows that happen abroad and I am guaranteed to be booked for the whole year to perform that number," she told.

Sure the sexy girl is really a beauty with brain. The item girls like Abhinayasree and Mumaith bagged big fame and money with their dances or 'Aa Ante Amalapuram..' and 'Ippatikinkaa…' respectively.
