The makers of the Telugu film Nakshatram had said that the team was scouting for a suitable star to dance for a tune in the film.

Director Krishna Vamsi was in fact looking out for a well established actor who can dance well and be expressive as well.

After discussing several names, the director has finally roped in Shriya Saran to dance for this particular number, that it is touted to be the highlight of the film.

Nakshatram, an action entertainer, has Sundeep Kishan, Regina Cassandra, Sai Dharam Tej, Pragya Jaiswal, Prakash Raj, JD Chakravarthy, and Tanish in the star cast.

The film is being produced jointly by K. Srinivasulu, S. Venugopal and Sajju under the banners Sri Chakra Media, Butta Bomma Creations and Win Win Win Creations.

Mani Sharma is composing music for this flick.

Shriya Saran, who has inked the dotted lines to pair up with N Balakrishna in his upcoming untitled film, was so impressed with the song theme and tune that she agreed to hop onboard immediately, say sources.

The actor forayed into the film industry with the Telugu flick Ishtam in 2001, which was directed by Vikram Kumar.

Since then, the actor has acted predominantly in Tamil and Telugu films with a few Hindi, Kannada and Malayalam films added to her profile as well.

Despite donning the greasepaint in several films as a heroine, she has also made cameo appearances and featured in special songs in movies such as Zila Ghaziabad, Oppiri / Thozha, Rajapattai, Uthama Puthiren etc.

The actor’s current assignments include the Tamil flick Anbanavan Asaradhavan Adangadhavan, which has Simbu in triple roles, Tadka, directed by Prakash Raj in Hindi and Puri Jagannath’s untitled film.
