ABOUT Asin

Asin Thottumkal: A Reign in South Cinema and Bollywood Foray Asin Thottumkal, a prominent figure in Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi cinema, enjoyed a successful career spanning over a decade before retiring in 2015. Born on October 26, 1985, she began her acting journey at 15 with the Malayalam film Narendran Makan Jayakanthan Vaka (2001). Her breakthrough came with the Telugu film Amma Nanna O Tamila Ammayi (2003), earning her a Filmfare Best Telugu Actress Award. Her foray into Tamil cinema was equally triumphant. M. Kumaran Son of Mahalakshmi (2004) marked her Tamil debut, followed by the critically acclaimed Ghajini (2005), which garnered her a Filmfare Best Tamil Actress Award. She went on to star in several successful Tamil films, including Sivakasi, Varalaru, Pokkiri, Vel, and Dasavathaaram, solidifying her position as a leading actress in Kollywood. The Tamil Nadu government recognised her contributions with the Kalaimamani award in 2009. The SIIMA award for Pride of South Indian Cinema in 2013 further cemented her legacy. Asin’s Bollywood debut in the Hindi remake of Ghajini (2008) opposite Aamir Khan proved highly successful, achieving box office milestones. The film's massive success brought her the Filmfare Best Female Debut Award. Subsequent films like Ready (2011) with Salman Khan and Housefull 2 (2012) further showcased her Bollywood success, with both films exceeding 1 billion in box office collections. Bol Bachchan and Khiladi 786 also contributed to her commercial success in Bollywood. All Is Well (2015) marked her final film before she chose to retire from acting. Her career is marked by consistent success and notable awards, establishing her as one of the leading actresses of her generation.
