Mamtha Mohandas, the petite beauty from Kerala was last seen in Tamil in Karu. Pazhaniappan’s Sivapathigaram opposite Vishal. Incidentally, the film failed to make a mark commercially.

This dampened the hopes of this actress who was fluent with Tamil contrary to most actresses who make an entry from other states.

She had to opt out of her next film Aruvadai owing to delay in the project and her getting busy in Telugu and Kannada.

She has now signed a Tamil film to be directed by Fazil. Priyadarshan will be the producer for this project and Prithiviraj has bagged the male lead role. Mamtha wasn’t completely missing from the Tamil film scene as she has been putting her vocal talents to use. She has rendered her voice for Silambarasan’s film Kaalai, releasing this Pongal, under G.V. Prakash’s music. This actress has even won the Andhra Pradesh state award for the best playback singer, 2007, for her song in the Telugu film Rakhi. Now that’s one multitalented actress Tamil fans can’t get enough of.
