Hyderabad: Ileana D’Cruz is one of the few stars in the Tollywood, who carved a niche for herself in a short span. She ruled the Telugu film industry for a while and then moved to B-town. Her Bollywood debut “Barfi” opposite Ranbir Kapoor also elevated her stardom. Currently, she is busy with Akshay Kumar starrer “Rustom”.

Speaking to a leading daily, Ileana said, ” “I would love to be back here. It was a lot more fun working in Tollywood. I was doing four films a year… I was constantly working. In Bollywood, it is a much longer process. But I love both industries.”

She added, “There was no plan to settle down in Bollywood and not do films in Tollywood. I guess people misunderstood when I did my first Bollywood film (Barfi) and since it was a big success, may be people thought I was not interested in Tollywood anymore. But from my side, there was no plan to stop.”

The 28-year-old actress said, “I have people that I am very fond of, Puri and Trivikram for instance, but I don’t feel that it’s my right to call and tell them ‘let me do a film with you’. If they want to cast me, they have the liberty to call me anytime and I would love to do a film here.”
