“It’s the first time that I am propagating retail therapy to my fans… Shoppre.com is a bridge between India and NRIs all over the world. I have heard many friends and relatives who shop online during festivals, but find it difficult to source them from India. Shoppre gives you a virtual address and a personal locker, so that what you shop online can be shipped to you in seven days. Plus, it’s run by two women. I am all for girl power,” Priyamani. ——————————————

Priyamani on how she bagged Ranjith’s Thirakkattha:

“The hero [Thirakkatha] Prithvi gave me a call first saying he has seen me in Paruthiveeran and that I have done a good job. He said: ‘I want you to talk to the director as it’s an author-backed role’ [a role specifically meant for an actor]. Then I spoke to Ranjith sir... He’s the one who gave me a lift in Malayalam cinema and put me on the map.”
