Telugu Girl Goes To Hollywood

Telugu girl Sobhita Dhulipala goes to Hollywood. She has signed her first Hollywood maiden project titled Monkey Man which is written and directed by Dev Patel. While she is a popular face in Bollywood and South, her Hollywood project would further raise her stakes. 

Speaking about her Hollywood debut- Monkey Man, Sobhita had auditioned for the role five years back. Speaking about the film and her role, she said, “I had auditioned for it almost five years ago and I got a call back in a few days for a screen test with Dev. I remember, it was on the day I was leaving for the Cannes Film festival with my first film Raman Raghav 2.0 (2016). What appealed to me about the project is that it’s a collaborative spirit, a young and rather eccentric approach to the story and most certainly the people involved. I really enjoyed my character’s tender dilemmas, they were as glamorous as sorrowful.”

Apart from Monkey Man, Sobhita has a string of films in the line-up. She has bi-lingual film with Adivi Sesh - Major, Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan, then Malayalam film Kurup and Hindi film Sitara.
