Anupama Parameswaran

Anupama Parameswaran, man, she’s one of those faces you just don’t forget. She got her big break as Mary George in Premam back in 2015—yeah, that one, the Malayalam movie everyone and their grandma watched. After that, she pretty much became a household name in the South Indian film circuit. Telugu movies? She’s done a bunch—Sathamanam Bhavati and Vunnadhi Okate Zindagi were both major hits, and folks still talk about her charm in those roles. She’s not just stuck to one language either; Anupama’s been everywhere—Malayalam, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada. Total pan-South Indian star vibes. Her Kannada debut was with none other than Puneeth Rajkumar in Natasarvabhouma, and honestly, she held her own. There’s something about her screen presence—she’s got that girl-next-door look but can switch it up and go full-blown dramatic if the scene calls for it. She doesn’t do that over-the-top stuff, keeps it real, which is probably why so many people relate to her. Oh, and let’s not pretend we don’t all low-key love a bit of celebrity gossip. Anupama’s dating Chiranjiv Makwana—he’s a film director, producer, and writer. Word is, they’re tying the knot soon. Pretty wild, right? Anyway, she’s clearly doing something right, balancing a solid career and her personal life without turning it into a circus. Pretty refreshing in this age of oversharing.
