AKSHARA TAKES HINDI LESSONS

- UMA RAMASUBRAM­ANIAN

For her upcoming family entertaine­r, Laali Ki Shaadi Mein Laddoo Deewana, Akshara Haasan has made an extra effort to work on her speech. The actress has hired a tutor to get a better grip on her Hindi diction.

Says the director of the film Manish Harishanka­r, “Akshara has dubbed for herself in the film and I must say, her Hindi has improved a lot. Before going ahead with the shoot, we hired a tutor for her. She is a very hardworkin­g girl and now she speaks Hindi almost like a north Indian girl.”

Akshara plays a strong-headed modern girl from Vadodara in the film, which revolves around a royal marriage and quirky characters, which are hilariousl­y trapped in their own tragedies. Akshara is featured opposite Vivaan Shah in the film. Written and directed by Manish Harishanka­r and produced by TP Aggarwal and Rahul Aggarwal, the film is all set to hit the screens on April 7.
