She may not have too many films in her kitty. But even the lean patch in her career won’t make gorgeous Gopika perform item numbers in Tamil films.
The offer to do a dance number came from Ajit’s forthcoming film, ‘Tirupathi’. But Gops said a firm No to the proposal.
Although her movie ‘Kana Kandein’ did well at the box office, Gopika has not had many offers from Kollywood.
Lack of work in Tamil films forced Gopika to migrate to home turf, Malayalam.
In Mollywood, she is doing a film in the company of Dileep titled ‘Pachakuthira’.
The earlier Gopika-Dileep starrer, ‘Chandhupottu’ has had a reasonably good run in Kerala and neighbouring states.
So what if I don’t have too many movies in hand? I won’t still go in for item numbers unlike Nayanthara or Jyotirmoyi. That seems to be Gopika’s line of thinking.
It takes some guts to stick to one’s resolve. Keep it up Gopika and best of luck for future.
