Nivetha Pethuraj was supposed to play Eesha Rebba's role in Aravinda Sametha

Trivikram Srinivas’ ‘Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo’, starring Allu Arjun and Pooja Hegde in the lead roles, hit screens on Sunday and the film received positive response from critics and audience alike.
The film features a huge star cast, featuring names like Tabu, Jayram, Murli Sharma, Rohini, Sushanth A, Nivetha Pethuraj, Navdeep, Rahul Ramakrishna and more. During the promotions of the film, Nivetha Pethuraj revealed that this one was in fact the second film offered to her by Trivikram.“I had missed out on Aravinda Sametha Veera Raghava because of a dates issue. I was supposed to do the role that eventually went to Eesha Rebba. So I was supposed to work with both Trivikram and Pooja before this,” she said.
Nivetha Pethuraj made her debut in Telugu with Vivek Athreya’s ‘Mental Madhilo’ and was later seen in ‘Chitralahari’ with Sai Dharam Tej and Kalyani Priyadarshan.
