Ramya Nambeesan - joins the wagon

Malayalam filmi heroines had been through great times for the past few years, making big names all through the South Indian industry. All the lead heroines of Kerala are getting big films in Tamil and other South languages, which has started a trend for every upcoming heroine to make a try in Tamil, Telugu and Kannada.








The latest to join the group is Ramya Nambeesan who debuted through the Jayaram starrer ‘Aanachandham’. She had agreed to share the lead with Cheran in the new Tamil film ‘Raman Thediya Seetha’. Directed by Jaganji, the film is produced by Monsaphiyar Productions. Ramya is presently enjoying the success of ‘Chocolate’ which had her in a prominent role.

Ramya Nambeesan - No to bikinis

Remember Ramya Nambeesan who played a role in Raman Thediya Seethai with Cheran in the Moser Baer production? Well the actor is back in a de glam role in Vetattam, directed by DS Kannan who is debuting with this film.





The actor will shortly be seen in Aatanayagan opposite Shakthi, the son of director P Vasu. She has so far done six movies in Malyalam and is looking for a good break in Tamil. “I will do skin show only if needed,” she says, but saying an absolute No to bikinis.






In Vetattam she plays a village girl in a role without make up. “I want to do a variety of films. Cinema is all about luck and timing,” she says about her fledgeling career in Tamil.

Priety Zinta - in Red

Preity Zinta’s impish looks in the Cadbury’s Perk commercial and her forthright character in her debut Dil Se, on par with her off screen persona stole the show and had her fans begging for more.

Pretty Power

Preity Zinta, born on the 31st January 1975 in Shimla comes from a non-filmi family. Her father Durganand Zinta was in the Indian Army and her mother is Nilprabha. Her older brother Deepankar is with the Indian Army and a younger brother Manish lives in California. Zinta’s parents were in a car accident that killed her father while her mother made it with severe injuries.

Zinta spent her early years at the Jesus and Mary boarding school in Shimla. She is a graduate in English from St.Bede’s College in Shimla after which she did a degree in Criminal Psychology.

Her break into show business was a matter of chance, when she was featured in the Cadbury Perk’s commercial. She went on to be the Liril girl and part of other ads. She made a move into movies in 1997. Her debut Shekhar Kapoor’s Tara Rum Pum Pum with Hrithik Roshan was cancelled after which she landed a role in Mani Rathnam’s Dil Se.

Zinta was dating Marc Robinson. She is currently dating Ness Wadia, a businessman who comes from the family that runs Bombay Dyeing.

IPL

Zinta’s life has been more than just show business. She wrote for the BBC News Online about women’s issues. She is actively involved in various social causes like AIDS awareness, clean up drives in Mumbai, human trafficking etc. Her prize money from Kaun Banega Crorepathi was donated to the Red Cross Society in Shimla. She was one of the celebrities, who as part of NDTV’s Jai Jawan, visited the army men based in Hisar, Haryana.

In 2008, she became the youngest and only woman to own a franchise of the Mohali based Twenty20 cricket team of the Indian Premier League. She was in the news for her rapport with the team’s players and support that she extended towards them during the matches.

Skating on thin ice

Zinta was awarded the Godfrey’s Mind of Steel Award and the Red and White Bravery Award for testifying against the underworld who had threatened her during the Bharat Shah case. She was one of the few witnesses who stood her ground.

More recently, Zinta was accused by singer Suchitra Krishnamurthy for being the reason behind her divorce from director Shekhar Kapoor, which Zinta denied.
