"Pallanguliyin
Vattam Paarthen... the song from Aanadam(Tamil), was a smash
hit recently. Featuring in that song was the wide-eyed,
homely looking actress Sneha. In a field full of Bollywood
rejects and Miss Worlds, Sneha, with just two released Tamil
movies (Ennavale and Aanandam) to her credit, is the most
sought after actress in Kollywood today. In recent times, it
has been quite rare for an actress of Telugu origin to be as
much raved about in the Kodambakkam area, as Sneha.
Though born in Mumbai and brought up in Dubai, she is
actually from Rajamundry, Andhra Pradesh. Noted director,
Fazil spotted her while doing a cultural show in Dubai and
recommended her to the director of the Malayalam film Engane
Oru Nila Pakshi, opposite Kunchacko Boban. Though the film
flopped, she was noticed by the Tamil and Telugu industry.
She was immediately signed for R.B. Chowdary’s Priyamaina
Neeku in Telugu, which was a major hit. She starred opposite
Madhavan in her first Tamil movie Ennavale. Although the
movie did not do well, Sneha became well known amongst not
just the producers and directors who began to cast their eyes
on this new bird, but also the fans of Tamil cinema who have
been longing for a homely looking heroine for quite sometime
now. All the leading Tamil magazines praised Sneha's
performance in the review of Ennavale. With the release of
her first movie itself, she left her mark as being a good
actress, in addition to being a very good-looking girl!
Then, came the R.B. Choudary production Aanandam featuring a
long list of stars of the class of Mamooty and Abbas. S.A.
Rajkumar's excellent number "Pallaaguliyin..." featured Sneha
and she was cast opposite Abbas in the film. She looked
tailor made for the role and her market rose up with the
release of Aanandam. Today, she is busy working in about ten
movies.
Sneha's upcoming releases include Pammal K. Sambandham with
Kamal Hassan and K. Balachander's 100th movie Paarthale
Paravasam, which is the story of a love triangle between
Madhavan, Simran and Sneha. She stars in R.B. Choudary's
upcoming movie Punnagai Desam and was also signed in
Vikraman's upcoming project with Vijay. Another much awaited
movie for this Diwali is Virumbugiren, in which Sneha is cast
as the heroine opposite Prashanth. She has learnt folk dance
and Bharathnatyam, and takes part in cultural shows organized
by Choreographer Kala Master. Sneha prefers
performance-oriented roles to glamorous roles.
Based on the fact that her performances have impressed "Iyakkunar
Sigaram" K. Balachander enough to cast her in his 100th
movie, one can surely say that Kollywood has finally found
the actress it has been looking for long. A rare blend of
beauty and talent!
