Sameera Reddy joins ‘De Dana Dan’

Priyadarshan’s next comedy “De Dana Dan” has the star-cast of Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Suniel Shetty and Neha Dhupia. Now, an added member to this team is Sameera Reddy.Sameera confirmed the news and said, “I’ve never worked with Priyan before. But I think he liked my comic timing in ‘Race’ where I played Anil Kapoor’s airheaded assistant. That’s how I am in ‘De Dana Dan’ too. I’ve always been a big Priyan fan, by the way.”However, Sameera will have to wait for sometime before she gets to work with Priyadarshan because Priyan has shifted this comedy from November 2008 to January 2009 because he is busy with “Bam Bam Bhole” starring child actor Darsheel Safary of “Taare Zameen Par” fame.And the director sure is excited about it.“‘Bam Bam Bhole’ is not a small arthouse film. It’s a full-on entertainer. And it needs nurturing. Once I release ‘Billo Barber’, I need to promote ‘Bam Bam Bhole’ properly. ‘De Dana Dan’ with Akshay, Katrina, Sameera Reddy, Suniel Shetty and Neha Dhupia has gone forward by a few months.”
