Reba Monica John
Reba Monica John? She’s honestly one of those people who just seems to have it all going on. Born and raised in Bengaluru, she first popped up on everyone’s radar as a finalist on the reality show Midukki back in 2013—yeah, that one on Mazhavil Manorama. Not exactly an easy crowd to impress, but she managed to stand out. Wasn’t long before she jumped into films, landing her debut in the Malayalam hit Jacobinte Swargarajyam in 2016. And honestly, she was a total natural. Sharing the screen with Nivin Pauly? No big deal, just another day at the office.
After that, she didn’t just stick to one thing. She’s bounced between Malayalam and Tamil films, keeping things fresh. Movies like Paipin Chuvattile Pranayam and Bigil? She’s right up there with the big names—literally, starring alongside Vijay in Bigil. And, oh, the modeling gigs? She’s done plenty, strutting her stuff for some pretty serious brands and designers.
But wait, there’s more. She’s actually got a degree in chemistry from Christ University in Bengaluru. And she’s a trained classical dancer too. Like, who has time for all that? Fans can’t help but notice, though; her Insta is full of dance clips, goofy behind-the-scenes stuff, and the odd throwback. She keeps it real online, actually chats with people, shares bits of her life—super relatable vibes. No wonder her fan base is growing like crazy. If you’re into South Indian cinema, you’ve probably already seen her face pop up, and if not, you probably will soon.
