Is this a film realistic or fictional?

It is pretty real and pretty cinematic -- real mixed with fiction. The story is set in a real way so that I want people to identify and connect with it.

Nobody knew that you produced and acted in Show till you released it. Are you being secretive about Kavya's Diary too?

Not as secretive as I was about Show. I did not have any press conference before beginning the shoot of Kavya's Diary. I had one only at the end of the film. I wanted to concentrate on the film 100 per cent as it was a schedule of 38 days I did not want any distraction and disturbance during the shoot. I got into that zone and thoroughly enjoyed it. We shot most of the film on location at Lahari Resorts.

How were Charmee and Shashank selected?

As I said before Charmee fitted the role. The next important role was the hero's. I liked Shashank in Anukokonda Oka Roju. He has a high-energy role and he suits it.

Your husband Sanjay is producing this film under Indira Productions. What is the rapport you share with him on the work front?

My husband and I have a perfect relationship as a couple and an excellent understanding and working relationship too. I look after the creative side, while he looks after the finance and marketing. We take advice from each other whenever needed.
