The Tamil romantic movie, Kalavani, was released in 2010. It was directed by the then newcomer A Sarkunam. The movie starred Vimal, Oviya, Saranya Ponvannnan, Ganja Karuppu and Illavarasu. While the movie was made on a low budget, it emerged to be a sleeper hit and was later remade in Kannada as Kirataka. If you have watched this movie, then you may remember that Vimal had a younger sister portrayed by Manisha Priyadharshini. Do you know where she is now? Critics lauded Manisha Priyadharshini’s acting in her brief role as Vimal’s sister in Kalavani. She failed to land any big films after this movie and instead focused on her studies. Manisha always dreamed of becoming a Collector. There were reports that she was preparing for the UPSC exams. As per media reports, actor Jai lent a helping hand to the junior artiste by purchasing her important books and promised to help her in the future as well.

As per reports, while she was acting on both television and silver screens, she was also balancing her education by excelling in her studies in college. Manisha Priyadharshini was reportedly studying LLB. Her mother too hoped that one day her daughter would become an IAS officer.

A few years ago, Manisha Priyadharshini became the buzz of the town after she alleged that a renowned writer who was working in a popular serial, hugged her when she touched his feet to seek blessings. She also alleged that she was removed from the popular serial after she reportedly refused him sexual favours.

Manisha Priyadharshini began her acting as a child artiste in the industry and after growing up, she played a few lead roles. After this incident, she claimed to have lost the opportunity to act.

Currently, she is quite active on social media and often keeps her fans and followers updated with her posts. Recently, she posted a video of herself dancing in a purple-pink saree.
