South bombshell Raai Laxmi explodes with hotness in her new Telugu film

Raai Laxmi is the new dazzling beauty of South cinema when it comes to sizzling in item numbers and playing bold characters. The 29-year-old Gujarati diva entered the scene at the age of 15 with the Tamil flick ‘Karka Kasadara’ in 2005 and went on to star in her debut Telugu flick ‘Kanchanamala Cable TV’ in the same year. After a successful stint in Tamil and Malayalam cinema, the talented actress returned to Tollywood in 2012 for the Balakrishna starrer ‘Adhinayakudu’’. Despite the movie bombed at the box-office, Raai Laxmi delivered a visual treat to the masses with her voluptuous oomph factor and her brilliant dance moves offered the much-needed relief to the viewers.

After shaking the belly for a couple of item songs in big-ticket films, the bombshell will be portraying the role of a sexy school teacher (like a Sushmita Sen in ‘Main Hoon Na’) in her upcoming Telugu film titled ‘Where Is The Venkatalakshmi’. Her latest pics from the sets of the film are raising the temperature on the internet.

The stunning & super-alluring bikini avatar for ‘Julie 2’

Impressed by her charming personality, curvaceous figure and good acting-chops, director Deepak Shivdasani introduced Raai Laxmi to Bollywood as the female lead in ‘Julie 2’. This sequel to the superhit erotic-thriller ‘Julie’ might have failed at the box-office, but the sultry glam-doll managed to make a solid impact with her bold on-screen avatar. She looked gorgeous and appealing in every frame of the film.

This 50th film of Raai Laxmi also made her shed 10 kilos of weight for sporting a bikini and boy, she appeared absolutely hot.

Scintillating screen-presence and brilliant dancing in item numbers

To cash in on her scintillating screen-presence and striking physique, Telugu filmmakers queued behind Raai Laxmi to get her on-board for item songs. Her first special number was “Lucky Lucky Rai” opposite Ravi Teja in the 2013 blockbuster ‘Balupu’. After a couple of years, the beautiful starlet came back to shake a leg in Pawan Kalyan’s ‘Sardaar Gabbar Singh’ and ‘Khaidi No. 150’.

The special song of Ratthaalu in the Chiranjeevi starrer turned out to be a massive hit among the masses. Raai Laxmi’s sensuous presence and ravishing dance-moves created a festive mood in the theatres.

A hot darling for her millions of social media fans

Raai Laxmi is one of the rare South Indian actresses to be highly active on social media handles. She constantly updates her followers & fans with vacation pictures, images from shooting locations, gym pics, and eye-popping personal photos which make her a hot darling on the internet. Over the years, Laxmi proved to be someone who lives life on her own terms. Predominately working across all languages in the South, the ‘Akira’ actress certainly knows how to grab the attention of netizens.

Alleged-affair with former Indian Cricket Team skipper

Raai Laxmi and Mahendra Singh Dhoni dated each other sometime back in 2009 when the glamourous diva was the brand ambassador of Chennai Super Kings in the IPL. But the two parted ways for unknown reasons and went on with their lives. During that time, the actress was so impressed by MSD that she reportedly told in an interview that she would marry him if he proposes to her. Laxmi said that she had moved on in life and is looking to explore more opportunities in multiple languages.
