The Exclusive list - top ten heroines of Kollywood.




Hospitality is the buzz word of Tamil Nadu and this feeling can very well be perceived in tinsel town too. Whoever enters Kollywood with talent, good looks and hard work can make it to the top irrespective of the geographical area they come from. A few years back actresses from the north ruled the roost here. But things have changed and now it is the time of damsels from Kerala who are calling the shots.

Glamour alone cannot help any artist in the long run. Ultimately, it is the talent that makes a difference. Now let us have a look at the top ten actresses who with their talent have made Kodambakkam as their abode of career. This ranking is based on their recent performances, box office results of their movies, their trade value and their upcoming movies.

Asin

This cherubic girl was introduced in Malayalam films. She stepped into filmdom through modeling. A popular model with Alukkas Jewellery and Hayagriva Silks was noted by leading film makers of Malayalam and was absorbed into the world of glamour. She was earning around two to four lakhs in advertisement campaigns, charged five lakhs for a film with Dileep.


Subsequently was paid a sum of ten lakhs for the Telugu original of M Kumaran S/O Mahalakshmi and when the film was made in Tamil she was offered 10-15 lakhs. Eventually when her movies started doing well, her rates have also catapulted to a greater height. Asin is very smart and accepts films only with leading stars and big banners. There would not be a dearth of publicity in such films with mega stars and mega banners. Similarly in the advertising field, she endorses products only for leading and top companies. Currently had asked for 50 lakhs for Dasavatharam with Kamal under the direction of K.S.Ravikumar but settled for 45 lakhs. Pongal 2007 is going to belong exclusively to her with Pokkiri and Aalwar lined up for release.

Her bubbly nature, charm and refreshing screen presence have endeared her to audiences. She has not yet got an opportunity to showcase her acting skills to any great extent apart from the out of the ordinary role in Gajini; she remains largely untested on this front. However Dasavatharam alongside Kamal may prove to be the yardstick by which she is judged
