Sandalwood's
senior
actress-director
Vijayalakshmi
Singh
made
her
comeback
with
Yaana,
which
stars
her
three
daughters.
The
coming-of-age
film
garnered
good
reviews
and
won
fans'
appreciation
for
its
portrayal
of
the
female
leads.
Vijayalakshmi
Singh,
in
a
conversation
with
TOI,
discussed
in
length
about
bringing
her
three
daughters
Vaibhavi,
Vainidhi
and
Vaisiri
together
for
Yaana,
which
she
always
wanted
to
direct.
She
also
said
how
she
made
it
happen
without
disturbing
their
studies.
Discussing
as
to
how
she
put
the
script
together,
Vijayalakshmi
said,
"After
many
years,
I
decided
to
direct
the
movie
again.
I
wanted
to
make
a
movie
for
the
youth.
I
wrote
the
script
with
someone
else
in
mind.
I
was
observing
Vaibhavi,
Vainidhi,
Vaisari
during
the
script
discussion.
When
I
personally
asked
them
they
showed
the
interest.
Everything
came
together,
so
I
decided
to
bring
all
my
three
daughters
for
the
movie."
"Before
making
this
movie,
Jai
Jagdeesh
had
a
condition,
there
shouldn't
be
any
problem
with
kids
studies.
But,
they
balanced
very
well
when
acting
in
this
movie.
They
also
passed
exams
with
distinction.
Their
teachers
are
very
appreciative," she
further
added.
All
of
her
daughters
look
alike,
and
many
a
time
were
assumed
to
be
triplets.
To
this,
Vijayalakshmi
responded
-
"So
many
people
are
asking
this
question.
We
kept
it
as
a
suspense.
Let
it
be
revealed
in
the
movie.
In
fact,
the
difference
between
Vaibhavi
and
her
twin
sisters
is
1
year
and
3
months.
So
they
all
look
a
little
alike."
"This
was
challenging
for
me
in
the
movie,
to
show
their
character
and
behaviour
differently.
I
had
never
given
anyone
a
script
before,
I
just
gave
them
the
dialogues
before
the
shoot.
Just
pretend
like
you're
going
to
be
realistic.
All
acted
very
well.
I
am
proud
of
it,
"
Vijayalakshmi
added.
