However the mantle finally fell on Bollywood
Badshah Shah Rukh. In the same function, to light
the kuthuvilakku, the names of many actresses
were discussed and the committee zeroed in on
Priyamani. It has been reported that the Information
and Broadcasting ministry had come to know of
Priyamani when she bagged the 9th Asian cinefan
award in the Best actress category for Paruthiveeran.
When Priya was contacted, she was very elated
and said, “It is a great honor to light
the Kuthuvilakku at this prestigious function
and I accept this on behalf of entire South Indian
film industry. I am eagerly waiting for the day
when I will be meeting my favorite hero Shah Rukh
Khan.”
