Aditi Rao Hydari

"As a kid, I wished to work with Mani Ratnam some day. Years later, I finally shot for a film with him," says Aditi Rao Hydari, whose upcoming Tamil romance-drama, 'Kaatru Veliyidai', has been helmed by the celebrated filmmaker. Shot extensively in the picturesque locations of Ooty, Ladakh and Hyderabad, the film, says Aditi, has been an enriching experience, and she only has the director to credit. "Actors don't choose to do his films, he chooses them."
