Goa beauty Ileana who has been staying away from Tollywood from the past few years is all set for her comeback with Ravi Teja's 'Amar Akbar Antony' movie. Talking at the pre-release event of the flick, she made some sensational comments on 'Pokiri' movie.
Ileana stated that after listening to the script of the movie, she didn’t expect it to become a huge hit. Talking about her long gap in Tollywood, she claimed that she got good offers which have exciting stories in Hindi which is why moved to Bollywood and settled there. She also added that she didn’t get any interesting scripts in Tollywood which has been the main reason for the long gap. However, she also said that her story judgment has failed so many times. "Some stories that I thought will become super hits have failed utterly and some movies like 'Pokiri' became her career biggest hits." Said Ileana. She thought that story might not work out well at the box office. She was about to reject the role but Mahesh Babu’s sister Manjula convinced her to take up the role and the movie went on to become an industry hit that time.
Even director Puri Jagannadh also said that when the movie was released that, he did not expect that the movie will become such a huge hit. On the other hand, 'Amar Akbar Antony' is slated for November 17th release.
