Actress Gayathiri, after doing projects in the southern movie industry, is making her Bollywood debut with the role of an income tax sleuth in Raid. Happy to work with Ajay Devgn, she says she is glad to foray in Hindi filmdom with a non-glamorous part. "Raid" is directed by Rajkumar Gupta, and also features Ileana D'Cruz.

"I'm glad my debut is with a non-glam and realistic role. Even in the south, I leaned towards roles which didn't require me to be just a pretty prop. It's not that I dread running around trees (I have done that and enjoyed it too). It is just that glamour without substance (in a role or otherwise) eventually gets vapid," Gayathiri said in a statement.
