Tamil director Ramsubramaniam believes southern actress Andrea Jeremiah, who will sport three different looks in his next untitled film, has a lot of untapped potential.
"She (Andrea) is one of the finest actresses I have come across. But seldom do we see her in a role that does justice to her potential. I decided to make the best use of her potential and that's why I chose her for my film," Ram told IANS.
Refusing to divulge details about the looks, he said: "I want her looks to be kept a secret until we reveal it. But, what I can assure you is that it will definitely bring out the best in her as an actress."
Andrea, who is also a popular southern singer, was last seen in Kamal Haasan's controversial multi-lingual thriller "Vishwaroopam". She played one of the teammates of Haasan, who played a secret spy in the film.
In Telugu cinema, she was recently seen opposite actor Sunil Varma in "Tadakha", which is the Telugu remake of "Vettai".
Andrea made her acting debut in Tamil romantic-drama "Kandha Naal Mudhal" in 2005. In the same year, she debuted as a singer with the song "Kannum Kannum Nokia" from Tamil thriller "Anniyan".
