Sneha Biodata:

Who is Shena?

Sneha is a leading actress in South Indian film industry. She debuted in Virumbugiren with Prasanth. Some of her major films include Autograph, King and Vasool Raja MBBS with Kamal Hassen. Sneha is the one of the few actresses in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam movies who refuses to take up glamourous roles, as she believes that her 'homely roles' are appreciated by all South Indian audience. She acted in several Tamil and Telugu movies. She also acted in two Malayalam and Kannada movies.

She started her career with Malayalam films and went on to become a phenomenon in Tamil. She is the only actress in Tamil who says a stern 'no! no' to glamour. Whether it's her reported preference for playing lead with the younger heroes, or her marked reluctance to play lesser roles or simple plain, taking a stand on what glamour is, she has always come clean with that earnest frankness.

Sneha - The wide-eyed, homely looking actress:

Telugu "pilla", with the girl-next-door looks, Sneha was born in Mumbai and brought up in Dubai. Her parents hail from Rajamundhry, Andhra Pradesh but she never got a chance to learn her mother tongue--- Telugu. She was discovered by director Fazil when he saw her in a cultural show in Dubai. He recommended her to a malayalam film director and then she acted in a Malayalam movie.

Later Sneha was recognized by Telugu and Tamil film industry. Though she is getting many offers from Telugu and Tamil film industry, she is very particular about her roles. She looks elegant in western and Indian dressing. She says that she prefers performance oriented roles to glamour oriented.

Sneha Film Career:

Sneha as Telugu top actress:

Born in Mumbai and brought up in Dubai, it was a chance meeting with director Fazil at a cultural show there that Sneha landed straight in Kerala on the latters advice and bagged the lead role in the Malayalam film, Engane Oru Nila Pakshi, opposite Kunchako Bobban. And then opportunities came one by one to her in Tamil and Telugu - Ennavale, opposite the latest heartthrob Madhavan and with Abbas in Super Good Chowdarys Anandam now running successfully. Her forthcoming Tamil film is the Prashanth starrer, Virumbigiren. In Telugu, though her maiden release, Ninnuchoosaka, dubbed from Ennavale failed to click, however her first straight film R.B. Chowdarys Priyamaina Neeku is now heading for a silver jubilee run.

Her second starrer in Telugu with debutant Gopichand, Tolivalapu, directed by Muthyala Subbiah, is due soon. Does it sound like pages from her dates dairy, then there are some more - the most prestigious assignments are to follow, Parthale Paravasam, the hundredth directorial venture of veteran K. Balachander, the Kamal Hassan-starrer, Pammal K Sambandham, R. B. Chowdarys Punnagai Desam, one film with Vijay and Editor Mohans Telugu multi-starrer, Hanuman Junction. She has signed these many films just within two years of her entry into the world of make-believe! And that vouches that Sneha had arrived!!

"My parents hail from Andhra Pradesh and my mother tongue is Telugu but since my early childhood was in Mumbai and later my family shifted to Dubai, I had never had the opportunity to learn the language. Now I am picking it up," says Sneha with a bewitching smile while shooting for producer M. Nageswara Raos Tolivalapu in Ooty. In Dubai, with many Tamil and Malayalam friends there, she learnt to speak these two languages fluently.

How did Fazil spot her? "I learnt folk dance and Bharatha Natyam. I was one of the participants at a cultural show in Dubai organised by Kala Master. Fazil saw me and said that I have the features to make it in films. My aim since childhood was to become famous in some field. Being in films offers this scope too. My parents encouraged me. I was fortunate to get an assignment immediately, in a Malayalam film. I landed in India on November 1999 and signed Engane Oru Nila Pakshi. Even before the completion of my first film, I was signed for Ennavale. Then R. B. Chowdary took me for two of his films, a Telugu and a Tamil venture. Things happened in quick succession. I am fortunate that way. I like sentimental roles with youthful appeal and again fortunately I am getting such meaningful roles, each different from the other. In Tolivalapu, my role as a working woman undergoes certain complex situations. It is full of fun at the same time a very powerful role matching with that of the heros. Given an opportunity I would like to work with Muthyala Subbiah once again."

Sneha says that she has no role models as such. "I am a film buff and watch every film that I can. Personally I am a fan of Sridevi and Kajol. But they dont influence me in a greater way. Out and out glamorous roles are not my cup of tea. Glam costumes are okay for me in songs but I prefer performance-oriented roles".

Sneha – Tamil fans hot favourite:

Sneha is the most talked about heroines of the day in Tollywood. She worked with legends like Balachander and Kamal Hassan. Soon she would be acting alongside Ajith in 'Vaamana'. She would be sharing the screen with Vijay also in a film. 'King' would be pairing her with Vikram. Does she have lucky spots all over her body? For sure, the days ahead would be very bright for her. It seems it would be Sneha all the way for quite some time in the near future.

With the arrival of each day break fresh news are being broken about her - more than any other heroine, Simran, Jyothika and Bhoomika included. Says Sneha in her jubilant mood, "I am eagerly expecting the release of 'Virumbukiren'. The film has turned out to be a wonderful outcome. The film is sure to boost my image. So I needn't worry about any other thing. The future looks prosperous for me. I am damn sure of it".

She has also some distant dreams to cherish such as playing a miraculous character as Sridevi has done in 'Moonraam Pirai', to lend her own voice for her film roles and to bag a national award in proof of her acting prowess.

She is a new star in the industry and can speak fluent Tamil. The hottest heroines in Kollywood, Jyothika, Simran and Laila, definitely lose points on this score at least. Sneha, heroine of the yet-to-be-released Virumbukiren, has already won rave reviews for her proficiency in the language and had two releases, Anandam and Ennavale, before the release of her first film opposite actor Prashanth. Even while acting in Virumbukiren, the film for which she was first signed, Sneha completed the other two, which did extremely well at the box office. The smart actress is also working in the Kamal Hasan-Simran starrer Pammal K Sambandam and with actor Vijay in a venture directed by Vikraman.
