Appu character from the movie “Happy Days” is played by none another than Gayatri Rao, with her bob cut hair style. Gayatri Rao who played Appu in Happy Days is coming soon as Gayatri, in a title role that carries her name. An added bonus, the film is women-centric what else can an upcoming actress ask for? Her parents who are from the industry have given her a steady, down-to-earth upbringing. Gayatri who has just given her 12th exams in St. Anns School and has decided to make films as her career though she is mulling over doing a course in Tourism. Gayatri Rao was born and bought up in Hyderabad.

Gayatri took training in Classical Hindustani and Carnatic music.

Besides playing Veena, Sitar and Mridangam, Appu alias Gayatri is good Kuchipudi dancer.

Gayatri Rao wants to be selective about her roles and doesn’t want to end up as another actress who is one amongst the ten. That is the reason as to why she rejected many offers after Happy Days. The actress says she had long hair but had to chop her tresses off and put on some weight for the film as Sekhar Kammula conceived her in that role that way.

She prefers to forget Ek Police because that is not what exactly she was told that she would do but adds that it might help her nevertheless as a learning experience. Her film Gayatri is in the post-production stage, it has artiste Nagabhushanam’s grandson Bhushan making his debut. There are many senior artistes she had worked with and finds it pleasure to be in their company.
