“Absolutely, I will leave everything to act in ‘Bahubali-3.’ That would be my first preference,” Kaajal told PTI.
Kajal said she did not regret having not acted in “Bahubali,” but was proud of the film, which was at par with international standards.
“It is his prerogative and it is his script and he obviously chose best for his film and he cast people, who he thought were best suited,” she added.
“It is not possible to have a trend of ‘Bahubali.’ They are too expensive. We can’t afford it in our industry, and these kinds of films are made once in a while,” she said.
“I am extremely impressed and proud of the fact that Rajamouli sir, one of my most favorite directors, has made the film and I am very happy with the way it has gained recognition to Indian cinema worldwide,” the actress added.
Asked about the trend of making women-oriented films like “Akira” and “Mary Kom,” Kajal said the times are changing and it is a great space to be in.
“The times are changing. A lot of films have been made like ‘Akira’ and ‘Mary Kom’ and female protagonists are given equal importance. And not just in Bollywood and even down South, our Tamil and Telugu films also focus a lot on women protagonists and it is to be a great space to be in,” she said.
Asked why she is not doing many Bollywood films, Kajal said, “Because I am too busy doing amazing films in Telugu and Tamil, but you will see me soon.”
Asked about the experience of working with Chiranjeevi and son Ram Charan, Kajal said she does not feel any difference because she focuses on her character and the script of the film.
“I mean I am an actor. I am supposed to do the job and who ever I am acting with I don’t feel any differently because I am focusing on my own character, story and script,” she said.
However, Kajal said she has lot of respect for Chiranjeevi and he is a legend.
