Why doesn’t Ileana speak Telugu?

Besides glamour, Ileana has also showcased her acting skills and held her own opposite costars like Mahesh Babu, Pawan Kalyan, NTR, Siddharth, Ravi Theja, Prabhas and Tarun. Did she face any casting couch so far? “Amazing. I should say I am really lucky. People have never crossed the line with me; there has been no casting couch so far. Since my mother has been around me, things have been fine. I am also a no-nonsense person. I have achieved a lot for someone of my age,” said Ileana.

Is Hyderabad a second home for you now? “Very much. I love the city and miss it when I am not there. During my stay, I am comfortable. I have bought property there as well. I understand Telugu but don't try to speak it, as I feel I may be made fun of. I prefer to be fluent with the language in order to speak it,” said Ileana.
