Remember
the simple yet elegant, girl next-door
beauty strutting around in the 80s screens
with heroes, mainly Mohan. She was omnipresent
in the screens during her era with her
trademark smile and her famous wardrobe
collection.
Women
went crazy over her style and the
roadside fancy shops made good business
selling beauty items and accessories
named after her. If you still haven’t
guessed, we are talking about Nadiya.
Discovered by Fazil in Malayalam for
his Noketha Doorathu Kannum Nattu
as Nadiya Moidhu, she made her debut
with the Tamil version of the same
movie Poove Poochoodava. The movie
saw her rose to stardom and she ruled
the Tamil screens for another four
to five years with her self-imposed
morals and values. She was one of
the very few ladies of her period
who managed to make it to the top
without having to display skin.
Rumor
has it that she is likely to be back in
the Tamil movie scene. Sources reveal
that she has bid goodbye to her American
life and is relocating to Chennai. Her
long time friend Arjun is extending his
helping hands right from finding her a
place to live and recommending her to
the producers whom he knows. Anyways,
welcome back Nadiya.
