Nivetha Thomas Has a Tough Task Ahead
Talented actress Nivetha Thomas who was seen in Telugu films like ‘Gentleman,’ Ninnu Kori’ and ‘Jai Luva Kusa’ is now returning with a thematic film ’35 Chinna Katha Kaadu’. “She has to pull in the crowds in the two Telugu states,” says a distributor, who adds, “It is a new challenge for the actress who is known for her girl-next-door roles and her acting skills,” he adds. She is playing a mother in this family-drama which also stars Priyadarshi and others. “Nivetha has gained fans among Telugu viewers after working with stars like Nani and she also did a female-centric film ‘Saakini Daakini’ which failed to impress. However her performance in ‘Vakeel Saab’ was well-appreciated but the crowd puller was superstar Pawan Kalyan,’ he adds.
Although Samantha was able to draw crowds along with Anushka Shetty, Kajal Agarwal couldn’t draw openings for her maiden lady-oriented film ‘Satyabhama’ “Even Anjali and Payal Rajput couldn’t garner collections for their movies like ‘Geetanjali Malli Vachindi’ and ‘Rakshna’, so Nivetha has to prove a point since the timing is not quite encouraging,” he points out.
With Rana Daggubati being the producer of the film, he is bound to get a good number of theatres and also will help in promoting the film and get visibility in two Telugu states. "Nivetha has a tough task ahead,' he cuts short.
