Career Sameera Reddy
Reddy first appeared in ghazal singer Pankaj Udhas’s “Aur Aahista” music video in 1997. Sameera was meant to make her debut as an actress in Saravana Subbiah’s Tamil film Citizen, during the early 2000s, but eventually did not feature. She caught the attention of Bollywood and was cast in a pivotal role in the 2002 Hindi film Maine Dil Tujhko Diya. In 2004, she appeared in Musafir, opposite Anil Kapoor, Aditya Pancholi, and Koena Mitra.
Sameera is also the first Indian actress to have her own video game, Sameera the Street Fighter. This mobile video game can be downloaded by millions of fans and is available to cell phone users throughout India.
Sameera decided to take her acting career seriously and starting working out, eating the right foods, going to the gym, jogging, Kathak (a dance form in South India), swimming and yoga. She allowed herself 8 hours of sleep every day and indulged her skin with all kinds of natural ingredients like curd and honey, and generally avoided make-up.
This regular routine paid off resulting in one of India’s hottest film actresses’ and she made her debut opposite Sohail Khan in ‘Maine Dil Tujko Diya’. This movie did not fare well but got her noticed and launched her career in Bollywood.
Quite a shy and moody person, she loves stuffed toy-turtles and enjoys eating in small restaurants rather than five-star hotels. While still a student at Sydenham College, she sang in Pankaj Udhas’ video ‘Ashita’ with a blond male Caucasian. Then partly influenced by her siblings’ success, she bagged some modeling assignments, including Lissome, as well as appeared in a Telugu movie. Plump, hair tied back, and bespectacled, she started working as a Marketing Executive with a multi-national company.
