Her
career graph is that of steady climb. No
overnight stardom or swooning fans; no fussy
mothers or boyfriends. Her work has been
acknowledged and she is in the reckoning
of most directors for a variety of roles. |

This
bubbly engineering student who took
up acting lessons as a hobby landed
in modeling before being spotted by
the producers of Jayam. About her
debut in Jayam she says, ”I
accepted the role because I would
be playing my age but in a totally
different setting. While I am a modern,
urban girl, I found it challenging
to be playing a simple village belle”.
She is happy that the film became
a superhit and launched her career.
But, she did not have many films released
after Jayam. |

She
explains,” see, I was getting
several offers but all of them did
not have a convincing script. I decided
to wait, because to me quality is
more important than quantity”.
Then came the film, Anniyan. About
the role of the conservative Brahmin
girl, this is what Sada has to say.
“Vikram and I had a blast working
on Anniyan. Shankar and he helped
me immensely in bringing out the nuances
of the character and this made the
role tick with the masses“.

Around
the same time, she also did an ultra-modern
girl in Priyasaki. The film had a mature
theme but somehow the audience was not ready
for it. She did not lose heart after the
flopped news that she would be the heroine
in Sivaji, the chance ultimately going to
Shreya. |
|
|
She
is unfazed by the bevy of beauties
competing for the cake. She strongly
believes that there is space for everyone.
“If you do a good job, you would
definitely be liked by the audience.
I am a strong believer of destiny
and if my stars do not favor acting,
I can always go back to studies, “she
says with an air of relaxed confidence.
Her latest release Tirupathi did not
create much ripples at the box office
but she is not concerned. |

She
is quite popular in Kannada where
she has had a couple of releases like
Mona Lisa which became a hit. She
is awaiting another Kannada film to
hit the screen this month. She is
reading scripts in Telugu, where she
has become quite popular after Aparichithudu,
the Telugu version of Anniyan ran
to packed houses.
Despite a busy work schedule, she
leads a normal middle class life thanks
to her non-filmy family background.

|
|
She
works out regularly which explains her lithe
figure. She is a great foodie and likes
to hang out at her favorite joints with
her friends.
That’s Sada for you – the changing
face heroine in Tamil cinema. Confident
and winning on her own terms. Good luck,
girl!
If stars don’t favour, ready to go
back to studies. |
