Krithi Shetty rose to prominence as the female protagonist in the love drama "Uppena," directed by Buchi Babu Sana. Vaishnav Tej, Megastar's nephew, made his debut in the film, which became India's first 100-crore club picture with a rookie hero. However, it's worth noting that the part was originally intended for a telugu actress, and following her rejection, Kriti Shetty stepped in. Shivani Rajasekhar is the actress who turned down the offer.

Shivani Rajasekhar revealed why the offer was rejected in a recent interview. Despite the attractive offer, she had qualms about the daring and personal sequences presented in the first draught.

Shivani emphasized that the screenplay she initially heard had sequences she didn't agree with, and that by the time the script was changed, it was too late for her to rethink. She expressed openly that she was unsure about her ability to do personal and daring moments, admitting her unease with love-making sequences.

Kriti Shetty, on the other hand, provided a notable performance in "Uppena," demonstrating her brilliance within safe limitations. Krithi Shetty rose to prominence as the female protagonist in the love drama "Uppena," directed by Buchi Babu Sana.
