By Ramchander
Ileana
D'Cruz,
the
actress,
who
has
made
it
big
in
South
Indian
films,
is
not
limited
to
regional
films
any
more
as
the
Goan
girl
has
started
off
her
career
in
Bollywood
on
a
right
note.
Her
first
step
in
the
Hindi
film
industry
has
got
her
appreciation
from
various
quarters
and
there
are
signs
of
Ileana
having
a
stable
career
in
the
B-Town.
Her
first
Hindi
movie
Barfi
not
only
became
a
successful
commercial
flick
but
also
got
critical
acclaim.
The
interesting
part
of
the
story
is
that
despite
Ileana
playing
second
fiddle,
the
actress,
with
her
brilliant
performance,
managed
to
draw
audience
attention.
Like
many
South
actresses,
who
have
had
a
great
career,
the
Nanban
girl
seems
to
be
ready
to
create
a
niche
for
herself
in
Bollywood.
However,
the
question
that
has
been
raised
by
her
fans
is
it
at
the
cost
of
South
films,
which
have
brought
her
name
and
fame?
It
is
because
Ileana
has
not
signed
a
single
Tamil/Telugu
film
after
her
first
Hindi
film
Barfi.
More
importantly,
the
actress,
who
had
some
issues
in
Telugu
film
industry
after
she
opted
out
of
the
promotions
of
her
Telugu
film
Shakti,
has
remained
unavailable
for
South
filmmakers.

Following
Asin's
Footsteps
It
appears
like
Ileana,
who
won
Filmfare
Award
for
Best
Female
Debut
for
her
acting
in
Barfi
recently,
is
following
the
footsteps
of
Asin
Thottumkal.

Asin,
after
tasting
success
in
Bollywood,
has
not
returned
to
South
films.
In
the
last
four
years,
she
has
acted
in
only
two
South
films
and
her
last
movie
was
Kaavalan.

Asin's
Footsteps!
With
this
deal,
the
actress
will
keep
herself
busy
in
Bollywood
for
the
next
six
months
and
she
is
likely
to
have
a
release-less
in
South
film
industry
this
year.

However,
her
fans
hope
that
Ileana
would
return
to
South
movies
at
the
earliest.
