South actress Megha Akash to make her Bollywood debut opposite Sooraj Pacholi

Things are looking up for Sooraj Pancholi, who plays a soldier in director Irfan Kamal’s Satellite Shankar. The film is being shot at various locations up North and a unit hand tells us that South actress Megha Akash plays Sooraj’s love interest in the movie.

For those who have tuned in late, Megha has already made a mark in Tamil and Telugu cinema. She is currently working in the Tamil thriller Enai Noki Paayum Thota opposite Dhanush and is also a part of his father-in-law, Rajinikanth’s next, Petta. Satellite Shankar is her big Bollywood break.

Megha says, “There were a lot of offers in Hindi but Satellite Shankar is something special. It’s a different film that is being made on a huge scale. I’m excited to be in it.” Irfan says, “Megha is exactly what we were looking for. From the time we saw her, we knew she was the one.”
