Padmapriya's profile should give her peers a real complex. An MBA who has worked as a risk consultant for GE, she decided to take the plunge into show business, first with modelling and then, films. After a Telugu film, she made her entry into Malayalam films with Blessy's Kazhcha in the role of a rural Kerala housewife.
After Vadakkumnathan, Karutha Pakshikal and Yes your honour in Malayalam, Thavamai Thavamirunthu and Pattiyal in Tamil, she is regarded as one of finest talents to have happened to South Indian films in recent times.
Now she has moved an important step ahead in her career with the celebrated director Adoor Gopalakrishnan choosing her to play the role of a sex worker in his new film Moonu Pennungal (These three women).
A highly talented dancer who started learning Bharata Natyam from a very young age, the gorgeous Padmapriya is absolutely sure about her preferences in her life and career.
In a long and exclusive tete-a-tete with Vijay, Padmapriya talks about her films, her passions, the recent 'dubbing controversy' and how it feels to work with Adoor Gopalakrishnan.
