Guess what could be the reason behind Namitha entering filmdom and making it to the top? The reason was her defeat at a qualifying round for Miss World that held years ago.

“When I went to the qualifying round of Miss World, I was not selected by the juries just because I didn't know English. Finally, Priyanka Chopra emerged the winner and became Miss World,” the actress says.

She adds: “I vowed on that day to master English and to make it big in filmdom. Now, I know the language very well and I am there in the hearts of millions of fans. This is all thanks to the challenge I took on that day.”

Saying that she has shed six kilos following advice from her friends and well-wishers, Namitha adds, “at present I am acting in a Telugu film opposite Balakrishna. Talks are on to sign on the dotted lines for a Kannada movie. I would like to make it big in Sandalwood too.”
