Rakul will play the role of sridevi in ntr biopic.

Earlier, news of actress Vidya Balan being a
part of the biopic on NTR (NT Rama Rao)
came as a surprise and now the rumour
mills are suggesting that Aiyaary actress
Rakul Preet Singh has probably been roped
in to essay the role of veteran actress late
Sridevi in the film.
However, the talks are still at an early stage
as Rakul might have date issues.
The late superstar and NTR were one of the
most celebrated duos on screen, having
done nearly 14 films together.
This number includes hits such as
Vetagaadu, Bobbili Puli, Justice Chowdhary
and Kondaveeti Simham.
According to a report in Deccan Chronicle,
Rakul was approached for the role and the
actress was elated to be part of the project,
however the date clash could be a problem.
The report also read, "Things are still in the
nascent stage and it's premature to
comment.
At moment, Rakul has a bunch of projects in
her kitty.
She is a part of Suriya's upcoming film in
Tamil with Selvaraghavan named NGK.
Produced by Dream Warrior Pictures, the
film is slated for a Diwali release.
The actress is also part of Dev, that stars
Suriya's brother Karthi in the lead. The film is
helmed by debutante Rajath Ravishankar.
Apart from these two films, Rakul Preet
Singh is also part of an Ajay Devgn film in
Bollywood.
At the outset, the NTR biopic is one of the
most awaited films in Tollywood.
The project went on floors earlier this year
and is being helmed by Radha Krishna
Jagarlamudi, popularly known as Krish.
The film marks the debut of Vidya Balan in
Tollywood.
