Director Hari Gopalakrishnan has confirmed that he approached
yesteryear actress Rekha for a role in his upcoming Tamil actioner Poojai, starring Vishal Krishna. But she wasn’t signed on as she couldn’t accommodate dates for the project.
“I wanted Rekha madam to play Vishal’s mother. We wanted her to shoot with us for a few days but since she was extremely busy with prior commitments, we couldn’t sign her on,” Hari told IANS.
Instead of Rekha, Hari has roped in Tamil actress Radhika for the same role.
