Many people in Kerala would remember Shamna Kasim, the girl who featured in many popular advertisements. She also played quite some important roles in three back to back Mohanlal films. She acted as Mohanlal's foster sister in 'Ali Bhai', the heroine's only friend in 'Flash' and the second heroine of 'College Kumaran’.She then had a number of small time project in Mollywood, as the heroine. But things didn't work out as expected and she was replaced from many movies like 'Chembada', after filming had actually started.
Well, she then changed her name to Poorna and is now debuting in Tamil opposite Bharath, a young actor of Tamil Cinema. Poorna's first movie in Tamil 'Munniyandi Vilangiyal Moondramaandu', is releasing on July 4.
A major highlight in her career is that even before the movie's release, she has earned appreciation from actor Vijay. He said in the audio release function that Poorna had a striking resemblance to Asin. This surely would boost her market value.
The film is set against a family background in a semi-urban village and is directed by Thirumurugan of 'Emttan Magan' fame. Poorna will have to wait just this weekend to know whether she can follow the likes of Asin, Meera Jasmine, Bhavana and Nayantara in the quest to climb the ladder of mega stardom.
