Actor Priya Prakash Varrier, who became an overnight sensation with her wink in the Malayalam film Oru Adaar Love (2019), was recently seen as an extra in Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor’s romantic comedy Param Sundari.

“I wonder how no one noticed this. I thought only I noticed, but I’m glad someone at least did,” a netizen wrote. Some people mentioned that Priya should have played the lead role instead of Janhvi Kapoor. “She deserves better. From viral sensation to background?” a user commented.

Priya Prakash Varrier shot to fame after her iconic wink in a song from her debut film. She was most recently seen in Ajith Kumar’s Tamil film Good Bad Ugly.

In an interview with Cue Studio, Priya opened up about becoming the national crush overnight and said, “Somewhere along the way, a preconceived notion was created about me that I am unapproachable, have an attitude, or demand a high remuneration. It might have stemmed from the hostility that came as part of the ‘wink sensation’. People felt that I had achieved overnight what others struggled for years to attain. So naturally, questions like ‘what did she do to get that?’ or ‘does she even deserve it?’ started coming up, leading to a general sense of resentment against me. I can understand that.”
