The Opinionated Indian published a blind item that described a veteran Southern superstar who had maintained his industry dominance for multiple decades but failed to achieve similar success in Bollywood. Her Mumbai career has mostly consisted of performing item songs and playing minor parts despite her success with a dubbed South blockbuster, which brought her a unique Hindi belt achievement.

Blind Item

This actress has been acting for several decades. She has acted in several South Indian movies & is a superstar down South. But she has not been able to taste success in Bollywood as a heroine. The only hit she has starred in the Hindi belt was a South Indian movie, which was dubbed in Hindi & was a blockbuster success. She has since been seen in web series & item songs in Hindi movies. As per a source, she is fed up with featuring in item songs & wants to go back to being a superstar heroine. Item songs have given her a lot of money & fame in Bollywood, but watching junior heroines from South India bagging pan-India projects is not going down well with her. She is annoyed with being only offered item songs or flower pot roles in Bollywood. She wants to step back. She wants to take a break. She wants to work on her physique & approach top filmmakers for meaningful roles. She has been asking studios to write meaningful roles for her. A much younger actress who was nowhere when she was at her peak, bagging a plum pan-India project was her wake-up call. She is aware that the much younger actress has overtaken her. 

The changing industry dynamic has brought her the most distressing experience. The younger South Indian actresses who grew up during her peak time now lead major pan-India films as the upcoming stars of mainstream Indian cinema. She mainly receives offers for glamorous dance performances and decorative parts, which bring her financial benefits but fail to fulfill her artistic needs. The moment he learned about the new leadership arrangements brought him both disappointment and enlightenment.

The actress has decided to take a break from her work to change her public image. She intends to work on her physical health while creating a new identity for herself and presenting her acting abilities to major movie directors. She wants to obtain a project that will establish her as a permanent key player in the industry, which she plans to achieve through her new studio, which receives financial support from a billionaire heiress. The question now is whether she has entered a new phase of her career.
