By Ramchander
Ileana
D'Cruz
is
fully
charged
to
make
herself
a
big
name
in
Bollywood
with
her
upcoming
Movie
Barfi.
The
actress,
who
created
a
niche
for
herself
in
Tamil
and
Telugu
film
industries,
has
not
signed
any
regional
movies
in
the
recent
times,
which
worried
her
fans
down
South.
However,
the
actress
has
clarified
that
she
would
not
ignore
the
Kollywood-Tollywood
but
now,
the
priority
for
her
is
Hindi
films.
The
Nanban
girl
has
said
that
like
every
newcomer
in
Bollywood,
she
is
giving
importance
to
it
but
that
does
not
mean
that
Ileana
prefers
Hindi
films
to
South
movies.
The
actress
claims
that
she
is
recognised
as
an
actress
here.
So,
she
respects
it
a
lot.
The
Kollywood
and
Tollywood
shaped
her
career
and
she
enjoys
working
in
these
industries.
Coming
back
to
her
debut
Bollywood
movie
Barfi,
which
is
releasing
on
September
14,
she
said,
"I
have
been
doing
south
films
for
six
years.
And
there
were
lot
of
offers
from
Bollywood
earlier
which
did
not
interest
me
much.
The
story
line
and
my
role
in
'Barfi'
is
something
I
really
liked
a
lot.
It
is
different
from
what
I
have
done
so
far,
hence
I
chose
to
do
this
film.
It
is
all
about
right
time."
Barfi
is
directed
by
Anurag
Basu
and
also
stars
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
Priyanka
Chopra.
