Malayalam Actress - Meenakshi

Meenakshi, born as Maria Margaret Sharmili, is a famous Malayalam actress. An MCA graduate from Stella Maris College, Chennai, she was offered roles in movies early in her life.

Though this film was a big hit, it seemed like her path of success had come to an end. Her following movies proved to be not so great.
