As per the recent reports, Shruti has managed to bag a juicy role which was earlier offered to another Southern siren, Asin Thottumkal. News birdie had a word that Shruti has surpassed Asin in a race to grab a role in the upcoming flick \'Welcome Back\' which is a sequel to the 2007 super hit comic-caper \'Welcome\'.

However, earlier there were rumors of Sonakshi Sinha to fit the role but, prior work commitments made the actress opt out from the venture. Later, Asin became a choice, nevertheless back to back hits delivered by Shruti made it clear for the makers to play safe on her.
