Describing director Sri Ranjani as someone with a sharp vision, the actress says, “She’s a perfectionist and the clarity of thought she has is fantastic. I know how difficult it is to get things done and I have observed her a lot on the sets; she’s really inspiring.”

On her co-star Raj Tarun, Chitra says, “He’s very professional and smart.He even helped me with my lines.”
