Lakshmi
Rai
has
often
been
linked-up
with
most
of
her
co-stars
and
some
cricketers.
This
time,
she
was
tagged
with
director-turned-actor
Raghava
Lawrence.
However,
she
has
denied
those
speculations
again.
It
was
all
started
after
Lakshmi
Rai
was
roped
in
to
act
with
him
for
Kanchana.
Lakshmi
Rai
claims
that
it
is
not
a
crime
to
work
with
an
actor
in
more
than
one
film.
In
fact,
the
actress,
who
worked
with
him
earlier
in
Super
Cowboy
and
Tamil
film
Pen
Singam
(Guest
appearance
with
him),
says
that
she
was
not
the
first
choice
for
the
recently
released
Telugu
film.
Raghave
Lawrence
had
approached
Anushka
Shetty
before
offering
the
same
role
to
Lakshmi
Rai.
The
former,
who
turned
down
the
offer
due
to
her
commitments
with
other
projects,
was
replaced
by
the
latter
in
Kanchana.
The
actress
adds
that
he
is
a
good
friend
of
him
and
they
share
a
good
working
relationship.
He
concludes
on
the
note
that
nothing
is
cooking
between
them.
