Priyanka Arul Mohan, who made her debut with Nani's Gang Leader in Telugu recently, will be venturing into Tamil cinema soon. The actor has been signed to play the female lead in director Nelson Dilipkumar's upcoming film, starring Sivakarthikeyan. 

Priyanka lives in Chennai and is fluent in Tamil. This is said to be what made Nelson choose her over others. There is no information about her role or the plot of the film as of now. 

Sivakarthikeyan, who is currently shooting for PS Mithran's Hero, will move on to Ravi Kumar's sci-fi and he will begin working on a Vignesh Sivan-directorial and this yet-to-be-tiled project with Nelson next year.
