This petite actress, known for her stint
in the Perk commercial, got her break on
the big screen when Mani Ratnam cast her
in a significant role in his first Hindi
venture “Dil se” opposite Shah
Rukh Khan, as his wife-to-be. She even got
to shake a leg with SRK for the famous ‘Jiyaa
Jale’ number, sung by Lata Mangeshkar
to A R Rahman’s tunes, shot in the
forests of Thekkady. It launched her career
in films at large and in Bollywood in particular. |
