Meenakshi fulfills momÂs wish
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,November 19 2009]
ÂMy mother wanted me to become a doctor. Though I failed to fulfill her wish in real, I am playing one in ÂChattambinaaduÂ, my first Malayalam film, says Meenakshi.
The ÂKaruppasami Kuthagaitharar girl, who took the glamour route after her debut movie, says she is happy to share the screen space with Âmega star Mammootty in her first Malayalam venture. ÂActing with him is a delight. He is so friendly, she says.
Saying that she suffered from viral fever during the shoot of ÂChattambinaaduÂ, the actress says her ailment did not stop her from going to work. ÂI was even admitted to a hospital. But I attended the shoot without fail as I did not want others wait for me.Â
On switching sides to glamour, she says, Âthe compromise was having in mind my career graph. I am a Bengali girl. But Tamil NaduÂs sarees and half sarees are my favourite. I have decided to attend functions wearing a saree henceforth.Â
