Hindi has never been a trouble. In fact, Hindi is the only language I can speak and write apart from Malayalam and English.
Apart from English, I speak my mother tongue Malayalam, as well as Tamil, Telugu, and a bit of Kannada and French.
Apart from popular actors like Mammootty and Mohanlal, I knew nothing about Malayalam, but I got to learn so many things which became a strong base in my profession.
Since I grew up in Palakkad, I am comfortable speaking both Tamil and Malayalam.
I have sung some songs in Telugu and Malayalam. And I want to sing in Tamil, too.
There are many Bollywood actresses who work in the South and speak Tamil or Malayalam, and though it is correct, we find it funny sometimes.
I struggled a bit with Malayalam, but it was easier speaking Tamil; it is closer to Telugu.
In Malayalam, I can improvise, and acting is easy because I think in Malayalam, but for 'Velaikkaran,' I had to prepare for a role, which is a first for me.
I got a lot of exposure because of 'Eega,' as the film was released in Tamil, Hindi, and Malayalam.
