Kannada
film
producer
Soorappa
Babu
has
slammed
the
reports
claiming
that
he
has
signed
up
actress
Ramya
for
his
forthcoming
movie
Prithvi.
The
producer
seemed
to
be
very
upset
with
the
reports.
Speaking
on
the
occasion
of
launch
of
the
Puneet
Rajkumar
starrer
movie
Prithvi
on
October
15,
he
claimed
that
he
never
thought
of
Ramya.
The
makers
of
the
movie
Prithvi
have
been
searching
for
suitable
face
to
star
alongside
Puneet
for
more
than
three
months.
Soorappa
claimed
that
he
has
never
discussed
about
Ramya.
He
said,
"Neither
the
director
nor
the
team
of
Prithvi
had
any
idea
of
casting
Ramya
as
the
heroine
of
the
film
or
in
any
other
role."
The
producer
said
when
his
team
was
discussing
the
names
of
several
heroines,
somehow
the
confusion
got
created
by
the
publication
of
a
fabricated
news.
And
things
got
messed
up.
Now,
Soorappa
cleared
off
the
air
by
saying
that
Ramya
would
not
be
part
of
his
film
Prithvi.
However,
Parvathi
Menon,
who
has
earlier
starred
alongside
Puneet
in
Milana,
has
recently
been
roped
in
to
play
the
love
interest
of
Puneet
in
the
film
Prithvi,
which
was
launched
on
October
15.
The
regular
shooting
of
the
film
will
commence
from
October
20.
