Actress Asin celebrates her 27th birthday today and IndiaGlitz would like to extend its warm wishes to her.

Taking a brief look at her life, Asin Thottumkal was born in Kochi and grew up there with parents Joseph and Seline. Her father gave up his job and decided to manage his daughter's career and it paid off as Asin landed her first role in Malayalam when she was just 16 in Narendran Makan Jayakanthan Vaka. After a short break to finish her studies, Asin made her break into Tollywood with the film Amma Nanna O Tamila Ammayi.

She had become quite the star already, but her real break came with A.R.Murugadoss' Ghajini opposite Suriya. Her performance as Kalpana won several plaudits and she was soon cast on the Hindi remake of the film opposite Aamir Khan. Despite having the successful career in Kollywood, Asin's interests moved to Hindi where she made her debut with London Dreams. The following films, including Ready with Salman Khan, Housefull 2 with Akshay Kumar and Bol Bachchan with Ajay Devgn and Abhishek Bachchan are all blockbusters and touched the 100 crore collection mark.

Currently, Asin is working on her next with Akshay Kumar, Khiladi 786, and is quickly earning the name of '100 Crore Queen' in Bollywood. After a year of tremendous success, the actress couldn't have asked for a better time for her birthday come up. Happy Birthday Asin!
