Priyamani on her bikini scene in Drona. Priyamani is not only known for her redhot looks and glamor feast but also for her performance oriented roles.

She in her hay days donned bikini in Telugu film Drona opposite Nithiin under the direction of Karun Kumar. Priyamani said “At that time I agreed to do it without thinking too much. I felt it was part of experimenting as an actor,”

She added "the filmmaker wanted to present the sequence in a style similar to the glamorous look of Kareena Kapoor in the Bollywood film Tashan."

She pointed out "In real life many people wear swimsuits or bikinis at beaches and swimming pools, especially abroad, so she did not see it as something unusual for a poolside scene in a movie"

Producer of the film DS.Rao also rubbished rumours that he pressurized or paid more for Priyamani for the bikini act. He said she readily agreed and this turned out to be the highlight in the film. He said when director told her that they are planning to make her wear a bikni if she agrees and also shoot a special song, she went into her caravan and held discussions with her mother and in five minutes agreed to do it.
