Actress Navya Nair, who has not been active in movies following her marriage, is making her comeback playing the female lead in director V K Prakash’s new project which will start rolling this week. The movie has been titled Oruthee.
Navya was last seen in Malayalam in the movie Scene Onnu Nammude Veedu, directed by Shaiju Anthikad, in 2012. She was the female lead in the Kannada movie Drishya, in 2014. Navya, a dancer who shot into fame winning prizes in school youth festivals, made her debut opposite Dileep in Ishtam (2001). But it was Nandanam that made her a popular heroine.
National Award-winning actor Nedumudi Venu died at the age of 73 at a private hospital in Thiruvananthapuram on Monday. He had been in a critical condition for some time due to liver-related ailments.
