Remember Hansika Motwani, the child face of several Hindi soaps and films? Well, she has now grown up and is carving out quite a career for herself in the South Indian film industry.

Her latest film, which has Prabhu Deva as its director is ‘Engeyum Kadhal' and it was through her work in this film that the actress has become a favorite of the choreographer turned actor turned director Prabhu Deva.

According to media reports, Prabhu Deva has grown so fond of the young actress that it has adversely affected his relationship with girlfriend Nayanthara.

If media reports are anything to be believed, Prabhu Deva and Hansika Motwani were spotted sharing an intimate moment inside a hotel in Hyderabad.

It has also been reported that Nayanthara gave him a slice of her heart when she was spotted confronting Prabhu Deva at a five star hotel. But now it looks like that Hansika Motwani has come to the rescue of her big brother!

A recent post by the upcoming Kollywood actress on her Twitter page says that people and media are trying to spread rumors about her association with Prabhu Deva. But all she would like to say is that her director is like a brother to her and she is his little sister!

We only hope that Hansika Motwani's statement can put the rumor mills to rest because with his ex-wife Ramalath taking legal steps for deserting him, Prabhu Deva is already in neck-deep trouble. He will definitely not want actress Nayanthara to do the same!
