Vettaiyaadu Villaiyaadu was Kamalini’s launch pad. Many felt that she was one of the best things about the movie. As Kamal’s love interest and doting wife, she managed to win a lot of hearts. The fact that her single song in the film, Partha Mudhal Naal was the bestseller of the album was an added bonus for her.

Kamalini however was already an established star in Telugu so she chose to pursue her career there and has not looked back since.
