This film started as a Kannada project but the producers thought Andrea has a good market in Tamil so they made it bi-lingual. I wonder why nobody in Tamil industry thought about this for me! This is a dual role with a period look and a cop role as well and I feel very good about the movie where I got lot of scope to act.'
