Chennai: Director Vi Anand has refuted rumours that actress Taapsee Pannu has been roped in as the third heroine in his yet-untitled Telugu romantic drama, which features actor Nikhil Siddhartha as the male lead.

"Contrary to some reports, Taapsee is not the third heroine of the film, which already features Avika Gor and Hebah Patel. In a week's time, we should be able to finalise the next leading lady," Anand told IANS.
