One
can
well
expect
Trisha
to
deliver
in
her
debut
Bollywood
outing
Khatta
Meetha.
After
all
she
is
not
quite
a
newbie
in
the
industry
and
already
has
close
to
35
films
to
her
credit
down
South.
In
the
industry
for
more
than
7
years
now,
she
has
seen
quite
a
lot
and
is
pretty
much
established.
Now
that
she
has
got
a
Bollywood
launch
with
none
other
than
Akshay
Kumar
as
a
co-star
cum
producer
and
Priyadarshan
as
a
director,
it
couldn"t
have
been
better
than
that.
Still,
considering
the
fact
that
Priyadarshan-
Akshay
is
a
tried
and
tested
'jodi",
one
wonders
if
she
ever
got
scared
about
being
sidelined.
“Yes,
eventually
this
is
Akshay"s
film
but
then
I
don"t
mind
that.
Many
of
my
predecessors
had
some
of
the
best
kick
starts
but
couldn"t
travel
much
distance.
I
hope
to
make
a
point
in
Khatta
Meetha
even
though
it
may
not
be
a
conventional
launch",
admits
Trisha
who
plays
the
role
of
a
collector
who
locks
horns
with
ex-boyfriend
Akshay
Kumar,
a
road
contractor,
in
the
film.
With
the
basic
plot
line
cutting
down
the
romance
angle,
doesn"t
she
ever
feel
that
she
could
have
rather
started
off
in
Bollywood
with
a
love
story?
“This
is
my
first
film
and
I
can"t
be
too
choosy;
let"s
admit
that",
says
Trisha
with
a
smile.
“For
a
start,
I
have
to
be
seen
with
big
star
and
a
director
who
gives
guaranteed
box
office
return.
I
guess
this
is
good
enough
to
make
your
first
move.
I
won"t
say
that
there
is
no
love
story
at
all
in
the
film.
It
may
not
be
there
for
the
complete
two
and
a
half
hours
of
the
film
but
there
is
a
thread
of
love
story
between
me
and
Akshay
that
plays
through
the
film."
One
hears
that
as
a
producer
of
the
film,
Akshay
went
extra
long
to
make
sure
that
she
was
being
taken
care
of
well.
What
does
Trisha
have
to
say
about
that?
“That's
right",
she
confirms.
“It
was
quite
funny
that
despite
being
a
producer,
there
was
no
producer-like
interference
from
him
on
the
sets.
I
didn"t
see
any
such
traits
from
Akshay.
He
was
more
like
a
co-star
all
the
time
and
made
sure
that
I
give
my
best
for
the
role."
