Keerthy Suresh feels that her latest release Thodari could have been better in ‘some aspects’. “I signed the film mainly for the innocent character I played. I had to act like a Malayali who didn’t know Tamil — and it was difficult. So I had to transcribe my lines in Malayalam. But I think the movie could have been better in other aspects,” she said.
