There is a dearth of heroines back in
the Kerala film industry. Attracted by
glitz and lucre, the Malayalam divas have
crossed over to Kodambakkam. Nayantara,
Navya Nayar, Renuka Menon, Asin, Bavana,
Gopika – the list is growing. Some
of these settle down in Chennai while
some make another crossover to Hyderabad.
This has put the Malayalam industry in
a dearth of heroines.
There
is no glamorous pair for Mamooty or Mohanlal.
Kavya Madhavan, who appeared En Manavanil
and Gopika are the only who were left
out for Malayalam heroes. They are now
importing new faces from Hyderabad to
be cast opposite the stalwarts. Two of
them have already landed in the Malabar
coast – Laya and Veda.
