After playing a village belle in Tamil movie "Velayudham", Hansika Motwani has turned gangster for her next movie "Vettai Mannan".

"I am playing a character not done by me before. I have a different look. I play a gangster girl, " said the actress, who is currently shooting the Tamil language movie with Simbu and Deeksha Seth.

However, Hansika is not playing Simbu's love interest in the film and the insiders feel this twist makes the plot more interesting.

"Vettai Mannan" is a multi-starrer on the lines of "Vaanam" and it also stars Jai.

Meanwhile, Hansika is awaiting her next release "Oru Kal Oru Kannadi" with Udayanidhi Stalin. It is expected to come out next year.
