Actress Illeana says acting comes first

Illeana says that stubbornly persisting with the belief that I will do this kind of role only will not help. "If we learn to embrace things which we dislike, we will get the ones we like one day or another," she philosophizes.

The actress says that acting comes first to her. She definitely has some specifications, but she would prefer to accept offers as they come and like to prove herself in them. "For me, being called a good actress is secondary. I should first get the roles in which I can prove my mettle. That is why I have got the image of a good actress."

She shot to fame with 'Devadasu' and 'Pokiri', and later preferred to be choosy. She awaits the release of 'Julayi' and 'Barfee'.
