Right now she is staying with her mother and she feels uncomfortable to mention Vijay's name in front of her. These days media is creating much hype about their secret chemistry. This Mangalorean beauty also says, "I and Vijay make a very good pair." But when it comes to selection of the heroine in Vijay's movie, Shubha will be the actress.
