Chennai, Aug 25 (IANS): Actor Aadi, who promised himself to attempt something different in his career post the release of his latest Telugu outing "Chuttalabbayi", is contemplating the idea of doing a realistic sports-based film.

"As I said before, my approach towards career will change post 'Chuttalabbayi'. I've mostly played the lover boy so far in my career. Hence, I'm seriously thinking of doing a realistic sports-based film," Aadi told IANS.

He has set his eyes on Tamil hit "Eetti" -- a story about an athlete suffering from a rare bleeding disorder.

"I've been a runner in school and college. I'm an athlete, and when I saw 'Eetti', I could easily picture myself in the lead role. It looks like a very interesting project. I've been approached with the offer and I'm seriously considering it," he said, clarifying he hasn't yet signed the project.

Although actor Naga Chaitanya was initially approached for "Eetti" remake, it's believed that he turned it down.
