Actress Isha Sharvani, who was supposed to make her Kollywood debut with Kamal Haasan's Viswaroopam, is sad that she won't be part of the project anymore. The Kisna girl says, "I was very happy when I was approached by Kamal sir's office for a role in their magnum opus. But then, I had to opt out of it because of date issues. I tried my best to accommodate the film, but it's with great regret that I had to pull out of the film. It would have been my dream debut — working with a veteran like Kamal. I hope I get the opportunity to work with him again."
However, Isha says her association with Kollywood will continue, as she's got Maattrraan with Suriya and David with Vikram. "I got a chance to do my kind of dancing in the Suriya-starrer and I can't wait for the audience to see the number," she says.
Another film that's got her excited is Bejoy Nambiar's David, in which she shares screenspace with Vikram. "Vikram's got hands on experience and has no airs being a star," she says. Interestingly, Isha is the second girl to opt out of Viswaroopam citing date issues. It was Sonakshi Sinha first, who, after being signed on to play the lead, walked out of the project as it got delayed and she couldn't adjust her dates.
