Nayantara – box office queen of 2010

South Indian actress Nayantara, who started her career with the Malayalam film Manassinakkare in 2003, has come a long way in the South film industry. She is one actress, who has been balancing her work in all four languages and this has given her a strong foothold in the industry.

However, the year 2009 was not quite good for the-26-year old actress as she had just one successful release in the form of Surya starrer Aadhavan. It was released in October and was among very few of successful movies of the year.

But in 2010, Nayan has made her comeback with a bang. All the films starring her in the lead role were commercial success in this year. Interestingly, in all four languages she has seen success. The list of her successful journey of 2010 includes Bodyguard in Malayalam, Super in Kannada, Boss Engira Bhaskaran and Simha in Telugu.

Boss Engira Bhaskaran was released with extremely positive reviews and turned out to be a blockbuster. On the other hand, Simha turned out to be one of the highest-grossing Telugu movies of 2010. Bodyguard was a runaway success and Super has broken all the previous records of Kannada film industry. Above all, Nayantara received standing ovation from the audience at the International Film Festival of India in Goa for her spectacular performance in the Malayalam movie Electra.

Nayan is obviously excited about this achievement and says that she feels privileged to have acted in some of the most successful movies in the South. She has become the first South Indian heroine in the history to have all hit films in the four southern languages in a single year.
