And that sentiment is, any movie starring Kajal Agarrwal as a heroine turns out to be a flop... 'Naan Magan Alla' released say 2 years back, starring Kaarti and Kajal, turned out  to be a flop in K-Town... even Suriya’s recent release, 'Maatran', starring Kajal as a heroine turned out to be a flop there. But the heroine has finally managed to come out of this sentiment, as the success or the failure of the movie has nothing to do with the heroine in that film, at a major extent. Kajal's recent movie, Vijay starrer, Murugodoss directorial 'Tuppaki' released this Diwaali, not only attained a success talk in T-Town, but also earning a record breaking collections in K-Town as well... another point could be no other much talked about film being released at this time, both in K-Town and T-Town as well. Whatever the reason could be, Kajal managed to spin her charm in K-Town as well, at least after two years of her debut as a heroine in K-Town.

After almost 4 years of being a Heroine, Sruthi Hassan got her first commercial success with Power Star's 'Gabbar Singh' this year. but, unlike many other heroines, who increase their pay to Sky with one success, Sruthi still remains to be fair enough with her pay. the actress is not demanding 40-50 lakhs per film… even in T-Town, Sruthi is in no hurry to do films continuously. the Actress has only singed ‘Balupu’ with Ravi Teja. but, the reason for Sruthi being not so keen on working in T–Town films, might be her interest for Bollywood. The Actress has agreed two projects over there, one of them being Prahbu Deva's directorial. But, for a Star hero, who want to cast a known and successful heroine opposite him, instead of waiting for Busy bees like Samantha, Kajal and Tamanna, Sruthi is definitely a fair option.
