Tanya Hope is a model turned actress in the south Indian film industry who appears in Kannada, Telugu, and Tamil films. After being named Miss India Kolkata in 2015, she marked her Tamil debut by pairing with Arun Vijay in Magizh Thirumeni's 'Thadam'.

Recently, Tanya wrapped up filming for Golmaal with Jiiva and Shiva in Mauritius. She has also completed shooting for Sundar C's 'Vallan' and a 'Kulasami' with actor Vemal. Now, the latest update is that Tanya Hope will be sharing screen space with Santhanam as the female lead in 'Santa15', set to be written and directed by Kannada director Prashanth Raj.

Talking about the film, the actress says, “This will be my second comedy movie in Tamil. I haven’t done comedy before, but Golmaal helped me get comfortable with the genre that I haven’t explored as an actor. And now I’m getting the opportunity. But I am happy I’m doing comedy, though. At this hour I think the world needs humour.”

The team, we hear, will start shooting by the end of March in Thailand, and will shoot some parts in Chennai. “The film should be out in the coming months. My film, Kulasami, with Vemal, too, has been wrapped up. I am happy I am getting to do different genres as I don’t want to get categorised into just one kind of film. Now, I dabble in intense roles, commercial roles, and roles that just make me happy,” says Tanya.
