Not every actress from the down South can make her presence felt on the Bollywood screen. It happened only with Sridevi and Jayaprada in a big way.
Though Hema Malini, Rekha, Aishwarya Rai, Deepika Padukone, Vidya Balan are from the South they are branded solely as Bollywood actresses as they did nothing much directly in the South.
Praneetha is one actress who is prominent in Telugu and Kannada. Her portrayal in the film Attarintiki Daredi made her more popular.
She tried to test waters in Bollywood by accepting a character in Hungama-2. The film was released on the OTT platform as well.
This was the comeback film for director Priyadarshan and actress Shilpa Shetty. Praneetha thought that this factor brought some hype for the film.
But nothing worked. Above that as the content marred the film, the film's fate ended up as a flop show.
Had this film turned out to be a hit, she would have got registered well among the Bollywood audience. But that didn't happen.
The first Bollywood film after her marriage became a disaster.
