Meenakshi enters glamorous side

When Meenakshi made her debut with Karuppusamy Kuthagaitharar, we thought she would fit the role of a traditional girl – the one that sticks to sarees, half sarees and salwar suits with oily plaits. But the movies that followed revealed her glamorous side, and her recent portfolio has her in some uber-sexy outfits!
Now the actress is busy enjoying her first fight sequence for Mandira Punnagai, which will mark the acting debut of director Karu Palaniappan of Parthiban Kanavu fame. “I don’t fight in this sequence though I like to call it an action sequence. It’s actually a scene in which I get hurt,” she said.
“It’s a heroine-oriented subject. As the hero doesn’t have a lot of importance in the story, Palaniappan sir decided to play the role himself,” she added.

Meenakshi dressing is misleading

When Meenakshi made her debut with Karuppusamy Kuthagaitharar, we thought she would fit the role of a traditional girl – the one that sticks to sarees, half sarees and salwar suits with oily plaits. But the movies that followed revealed her glamorous side, and her recent portfolio has her in some uber-sexy outfits! Did she make the switch consciously?

“When I did Karuppusamy Kuthagaitharar, that was the only movie offer I had and hence there was no question of a choice between glamour and non-glamour. It was a good role and I did it. The movies I signed after that happened to be with glam roles. It was no conscious decision. It just happened that way.” But ask what she is most comfortable wearing, and she says with a smile, “I love wearing sarees, but it’s not a very comfortably attire to wear on a regular basis. I am quite comfy in mini skirts and strappy tops, but people cannot judge me based on that. The way I dress misleads people. I am a thorough introvert! I do not party. No pubbing. Nothing. I just keep to myself!”
