It
is
well-known
that
Nayantara
is
being
showered
with
offers
from
all
South
Indian
film
industries.
We
had
reported
earlier
that
the
Billa
girl
was
approached
by
Mani
Ratnam
for
his
upcoming
Kadal
to
play
a
leading
role
after
Samantha
opted
out
of
the
movie,
but
now
it
is
said
that
Nayan
was
offered
to
pair
up
with
Arjun
Sarja
which
she
has
turned
down
politely.
If
the
buzz
has
to
be
believed,
Mani
Ratnam
did
not
offer
the
female
lead
role
rather
offered
an
important
character
in
the
movie.
She
was
offered
to
pair
up
with
Arjun
Sarja.
The
actress,
who
considered
the
offer
for
a
while,
opted
out
of
the
film,
as
she
was
not
sure
whether
the
character
would
have
enough
potential
in
it
to
showcase
her
talent.
The
only
reason
she
gave
a
thought
for
it
because
it
was
a
Mani
Ratnam
movie.
However,
as
Nayantara
felt
that
the
character
was
not
impressive,
she
politely
turned
down
the
film.
The
other
reason
for
opting
out
of
Kadal
is
lack
of
dates.
After
she
announced
her
comeback,
offers
started
coming
her
way
from
every
industry
and
the
actress
signed
quite
a
few
movies
in
a
row
that
left
her
with
no
time
for
the
Mani
Ratnam,
say
rumour
mills.
Kadal
marks
the
debut
of
Gautham,
the
son
of
actor
Karthik,
and
Tulasi,
the
daughter
of
actress
Radha.
The
latter
was
roped
in
after
Samantha
walked
out
of
the
film
citing
date
issues.
The
forthcoming
movie
also
features
Arjun
Sarja,
Arvind
Swamy
and
Lakshmi
Manchu
in
important
roles.
