Lakshmy Ramakrishnan (born 29 December 1965) is an Indian actress and director who predominantly works in Tamil and Malayalam films.[1] She made her debut in the Malayalam film Chakkara Muthu (2006), and has since appeared primarily in supporting roles in Tamil films.

Personal life

[edit | edit source]

Lakshmy was born and raised in a Tamil Brahmin family in Palakkad, Kerala. She got engaged at the age of 16 and got married when she was 18 years old.[2]

Career

[edit | edit source]

Ramakrishnan ran an event management business in Muscat, Oman from 1992 to 2001, before returning to India and acting and directing films.[3] Director A. K. Lohithadas offered her a supporting role in his next film. Karu Pazhaniappan's Pirivom Santhippom (2008) in which she played the character of Sneha's mother was her first Tamil film,[4] following which she played supporting roles in numerous films. She portrayed an angry mother who wants to avenge her daughter's death in Mysskin's Yuddham Sei (2011).[5][6][7][8] She also tonsured her head for the "once-in-a-lifetime role".[9][10]

In 2012, she completed her first feature film, Aarohanam,[4] acclaimed for the sensitive portrayal of mental illness,[11] which received a Special Jury award at the 7th Vijay Awards.[12] Her 4th directorial venture, House Owner, has been selected as one of the only two Tamil movies to be screened at the flagship component of the IFFI, Indian Panorama (Goa, 2019).
