After portraying former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa in the web series Queen, actress Ramya Krishna is set to take on another powerful political role. This time, she will play the Chief Minister of the then-undivided Andhra Pradesh in director Ratan Rishi’s upcoming Telugu political drama.
“She was initially reluctant, but once we narrated the story, she was convinced and immediately came on board. The role perfectly complements her commanding screen presence,” says Ratan Rishi. Set between 2006 and 2010, the film is a fictional political drama inspired by several real-life incidents.
