There was strong buzz that either Sai Pallavi or Pooja Hegde would be cast opposite Dhanush in his 55th film, directed by Rajkumar Periasamy. But it is now officially confirmed that Sree Leela has secured the female lead role in the project.
Dhanush has teamed up with Amaran fame director Rajkumar Periasamy for this new film, tentatively titled D55, and the makers have officially onboarded Sree Leela as the leading lady, marking her first collaboration with the National Award-winning actor.

This development comes as a positive sign for Sree Leela, as she is now landing strong projects in Kollywood, especially during a phase when her journey in Tollywood has faced some challenges.
A big film like D56 could certainly play a key role in giving her career a significant boost going forward.
