‘Mamitha is not the final word in beauty, an actress blessed with great luck right from start of her career’

Director Alleppey Ashraf said Mamitha Baiju, is an actress who became famous with a single film Premalu. He said she is presently receiving an unprecedented level of acceptance in Tamil cinema compared with many other young Malayalam actresses. Ashraf said acting with superstars Vijay, Suriya and Dhanush is a great opportunity for any actress, and the fact that Mamitha has already had the chance to do so is a major achievement.

He in his YouTube channel said, ‘Tamil cinema has always welcomed many Malayalam actresses with open arms and cast them as heroines. It started with the era of Lalitha, Padmini and Ragini. Among these, Ambika, Radha, and Urvashi were the ones who shone the most in Tamil films. Then actresses Revathy and Shobana had also established their own space in the Tamil film industry. Nayanthara was not a superstar in the Malayalam industry. However, after being embraced by the Tamil film industry, she went on to become a superstar in Tamil. She was the first actress in the film industry to earn the title of ‘Lady Superstar.’

Even actresses who had played only minor roles in Malayalam films have gone on to become heroines in Tamil cinema and achieved considerable fame and recognition. Among the new generation, actresses such as Aishwarya Lekshmi, Anupama Parameswaran, Lijomol Jose, Rajisha Vijayan, Nazriya, Nithya Menen, Parvathy Thiruvothu and Ramya Nambeesan entered the Tamil film industry and made a name for themselves, but the level of popularity and acceptance Mamitha Baiju is receiving now is greater than what many of them experienced. Mamitha is fortunate to have acted with Tamil superstars Vijay, Suriya and Dhanush. It is a dream for many actresses. Mamitha, a Malayali actress receiving such a great opportunity right from the beginning of her career, is something great.

Another actress who received such an opportunity early in her career was our own Keerthy Suresh. She acted alongside leading stars in Tamil and Telugu cinema and won a national award at a young age. Keerthy’s entry into Tamil cinema was a remarkable one. However, after marriage, there has been a slight decline in her career. After Keerthy, the name that is now being heard everywhere is Mamitha Baiju’s. Mamitha is presently dominating social media and television channels.

Some people in the film industry jokingly say that Tamil Nadu gives us vegetables, flowers and other products in abundance, while we contribute our talented actresses to them in return. For actresses, talent and beauty alone are not enough to reach great heights in cinema; luck also has to be on their side. As far as Mamitha is concerned, she cannot exactly be described as the ultimate definition of beauty. She is simply an average looking girl. In the comments under many of Mamitha’s Tamil interviews, people often say that they really like her natural beauty and request her not to undergo any plastic surgery and spoil her beauty.

Many actresses in the Tamil film industry, after gaining stardom, undergo a plastic surgery to enhance their beauty. Several actresses, including Sridevi have done that. Some Malayalam actresses have also undergone similar transformations. In Mamitha’s case, her existing natural beauty helped her to act with superstars. I conclude by wishing her many more experiences filled with coincidence, surprise, wonder and happiness throughout her life.’
