"No Permanent place in cinema without showing glamour."
She is on the threshold of Tamil Cinema. Her first film Manathai Thirudivittaiwas a moderate success. From this movie, she has stolen many young hearts of Tamil Cinema audients. Naturally she could steal several hearts by her chic dress approach and liberty to show body outlines.
When pointed out was it her aim to overthrow other glam queen by showing excessive attraction...
"It was not my idea to expose glamour. Only for a single dance number I used glamour dresses. Since the same is repeated often in TV, it appears as if I am bent on showing glamour.

Cinema
Nobody in my home is fond of films.  My dad has never seen a film yet. When in school, I didn't like films too. When performing in school dramas, I thought I could do something in the media. First I took to modelling. Since modelling and films are nter-related, I joined films.
Modelling
Modelling is different in different places. In Tamil films, Models were introduced from Bombay. I am the first Tamil girl in modelling. After me, now there are Trisha and Monisha. We bring models from Bombay and make them the heroines in our films. But in Mumbai, Tamil girl are treated with contempt. If a Tamil girl tries her hand at Hindi films, they ask her 'Why don't you work in Tamil films? Why do you come here?' And they cite a stupid reason for that. They say 'If a girl's face is round, she's a Tamil'! And that they don't like the round faces! How many of these round faces from Mumbai have succeeded here in Tamil Cinema!
Glamour
An important aspect for the heroines in the present day scenario, since there's a lot of competetion here. I ensure that it doesn't turn into obscenity.
Actor
 I like the performance of Raghuvaran. I don't miss a single film of his. His performance leaves an impact on the minds of the people watching the film. He transforms into the role and performs with total involvement.
Hobby
I eat well! Thats my hobby!
Desire
I wish to be happy now and always!
