​Yamuna Srinidhi forays into Telugu TV

Kannada actress Yamuna Srinidhi is all set to make her Telugu TV debut with the new show Anu Ane Nenu. The actress will be seen playing a prominent role in the soon-to-be-launched daily soap. Speaking to ETimes TV, the actress said, "I have agreed to act in a Telugu serial as it is being shot in Bangalore itself. Although I kept getting opportunities to make my Telugu TV debut for a long time now, I was very skeptical to give it a nod because of my priorities. I am not much comfortable leaving my children back home in Bengaluru for days together as I was asked to travel to Hyderabad for the shoot. My kids have always been my priority. But, when I was approached for Anu Ane Nenu, I gave it a thumbs up only because the shoot will be happening in Bengaluru."
