It is always interesting to see the journeys of some top celebrities. While some hail from the film family, some start their career from scratch in the movie industry. There's one such actress, who is now a big name in the South Indian film industry. She is all set to make her Bollywood debut in a big-budget movie. The actress is none other than Sai Pallavi. She has been ruling audience's hearts with her wonderful performances in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam movies.
From extra to leading lady
Sai Pallavi's journey is quite inspiring. She started her career as an extra in films. However, in 2015, she made her debut in the Malayalam movie Premam, which was a huge hit at the box office. In no time, Sai became the audience's favourite, and many started looking forward to her next project. But did you know she paused her education as a doctor to be a part of the movie? After the film became a hit, Pallavi flew back to Tbilisi, Georgia, and completed her doctorate. Upon returning to India, she resumed her career as an actress.
Sai Pallavi then acted in several movies like Kali, Maari 2, Athiran, Love Story, Shyam Singha Roy, Gargi, and several others. In 2023, the actress won several accolades and awards for her performance in Gargi. While Sai is an incredible actress, she is very committed towards her principles. The dusky beauty rejected a 2-crore deal with a fairness brand. About the same, the Premam actress once said, "When I was in school and college, I grew up with friends who would look at a girl with a darker boyfriend and say, Hey, you can do better. You are way out of his league. And when you see a guy with a girl who is a little darker, you end up saying, I think there is something else; what does this guy see in this girl."
Sai Pallavi's upcoming projects
We all know Sai Pallavi will portray Goddess Sita in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana, alongside Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama. But some of her other projects include Amaran, Thandel, and an untitled project with Aamir Khan's son, Junaid Khan.
