Annie Krislinzki bags Puri’s next

Annie Krislinzki, who made her Tollywood debut with a scintillating number in Puri Jagannadh’s ‘Jyothi Lakshmi’, has bagged the director’s next. The Mumbai-born Spain bred actress will be seen in an important role in the maker’s under-shoot Telugu-Kannada bilingual ‘Rogue’, starring debutant Ishan.

Apparently, Puri has penned an important character in the film and it required a girl with Firangi looks. Since Annie won brownie points for her portrayal in ‘Jyothi Lakshmi’ and she also happens to be a good pal of Puri, the director has finalised her.

A source close to the unit confirms, “Puri was impressed with Annie’s performance in ‘Jyothi Lakshmi’. He felt she would do justice for a key part in ‘Rogue’ and so zeroed in on her.” However, whether Annie will be confined to just a role or also sizzle in an item number remains to be seen.
