It is not often that a man of the stature of Ashok Amritraj goes out of his way to shower praises.

But when it comes to Shriya Saran, the heroine of his forthcoming film 'The Other End of the Line', Amritraj is all praise for the girl who stars opposite Jesse Metcalfe (the famous guy from the 'Desperate Housewives' television series).

"Shriya will surprise everyone with her wonderful performance, " says Amritraj.

"The camera absolutely loves her, " he adds. Directed by James Dodson, this Hollywood flick also stars Anupam Kher and Larry Miller (of 'Raising Helen' and 'Pretty Woman' fame) in key roles.
