Putting the rumour mills at rest, actress Swathi Reddy has clarified that she didn't decline an opportunity to work with actor Nagarjuna over money but due to her busy schedule and multiple projects.

"Supposedly I refused acting opposite a star like Nagarjuna because I quoted a huge remuneration and they didn't give it. But guess what? I ain't the kind to give up working opposite him over money issues. That's dumb," Swathi posted on her Facebook page Thursday.

"I'm honestly tied up with my sweet little films and the teams are working nonstop round the clock and giving it their all. I cannot make it worse for them by sending them date shockers," she said.

Swathi went on to say she adores Nagarjuna and thinks "he is the warmest, most handsome and classy man ever".

Swathi is currently awaiting the release Tamil film "Amali Thumali", while shooting for films such as "Double Barrel", "Yatchan" and "Aadu Oru Bheegara Jeeviyanu".
