Padmapriya's 'Striker'

It is a season for films with sports subjects.
Lagaan' was a cricket-centred film. It became a success and so, Bollywood had got on that track.
'Lagaan' was followed by 'Chak de India', 'Goal' and so on. But Bollywood is still in the grip of sports subjects.
Now 'Striker' is on the floors with the subject of carom. Padmapriya is the heroine and her pair will be Siddharth. Yes, the same Siddharth of 'Boys' fame!I always admire Siddharth. Even before 'Rang De Basanti', I used to like him, waxes Padmapriya.
Other than 'Striker' Siddharth is also acting in 'Blood brothers' He is a homosexual in the film.

Siddharth is equally adept in choosing characters, like Padmapriya.
