Sources say that Hansika Motwani was offered Rs 1.2 crores for the item number in Rajapattai but the actress rejected the offer claiming that she was not keen to do such songs. The actress told a leading daily that she will never do item number even if they offer a whopping paycheck.
It is said that the makers of the film wanted an actress, who has not done an item song before. Hence, they approached Hansika Motwani. However, now that she has turned down the offer, they are in search for another top South Indian actress.
Rajapattai features Vikram, Deeksha Seth and Mithra Kurian in the lead roles. It is directed by Susindran.
