Brazilian actress Larissa Bonesi feels she is blessed with "south Indian looks" which helped her rope in leading lady in Sunil Reddy's Telugu movie 'Thikka'. The actress said, "Although I'm Brazilian, I think I look like a south Indian and that's what caught the eye of my producer who saw me in a television advertisement and offered me the role. I fell in love with my character and immediately decided to be part of the project."

Talking about her role in the movie, the actress said, "It's an extension of my personality and hence, I could easily relate to it. I got really excited when I first heard the narration and I knew right away I wanted to do this role." Praising co-actor Sai Dharam Tej, Larissa said, "We've become good friends. He was very supportive and understanding and didn't mind if I ever took extra takes for a shot. We had so much fun shooting together and I loved working with him." "I'm open to work across industries. I'd love to work with stars such as Mahesh Babu and Prabhas."
