Ileana : 'Green For Bollywood But Not Red For Tollywood'

Ileana is now a happy bird for getting a branch to porch on Bollywood tree. She is now debuting on Bollywood screen with a film to be directed by Inadrajit Lankesh. The finer part is that she is pairing up with the latest heart throb of gals, Shiney Ahuja.

Saying about the film, Ileana says that she never bothers about the industry but only focuses on the story line of the film. She recalls the stupendous success of Pokiri and humbly passes the credit to Mahesh Babu stating that it was his own film. She says that she is no way bidding bye for Tollywood as many are assuming, but only works for all the industries when the story sounds impressive (story or remuneration!!!!).

Ileana also recalled and revealed that at the age of 16 she got the offer to act in Dhairyam beside Nitin but due to other reasons she couldn't do that. Raima Sen did that role and Ileana had to wait till Devadasu for debut.

She says that she is happy for the film 'Rakhi' as per the content and her role in it. She shares her hobbies are watching films at home and reading books. Sidney Sheldon is her favorite writer. She says that to love and be loved are the happiest parts of life for everyone. She adds that her family has given that happiness for her.
