Nisha Kothari will play a tough cop in Bullet Rani, a role similar to Pawan Kalyan's character in Gabbar Singh
Telugu-Kannada bilingual film Bullet Rani stars actress Nisha Kothari in the role of a police officer, but the movie is not a spoof of Pawan Kalyan's Gabbar Singh, says its director Suresh Goswami.
"I don't mind if my film is called the female version of Gabbar Singh, but it's definitely not a spoof. In fact, Nisha's role is inspired by Pawan's tough cop act in his film. We've only tried to portray a strong woman in a police officer's role," Suresh told IANS.
He is "confident" that Bullet Rani will give Nisha a much needed break from her image.
"Nisha is a talented actress. She's been typecast in certain roles, and therefore, we haven't seen the best of her. I'm confident that 'Bullet Rani' will present her in a different avatar and that's going to win her laurels," he said.
The film is currently in its final schedule of shooting.
