Sneha (born Suhasini Rajaram Naidu) is an Indian actress who works mainly in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam films, in lead and supporting roles. In Telugu she is known for Priyamaina Neeku and Hanuman Junction (2001), Venky (2004), Sankranthi and Radha Gopalam (2005), and Sri Ramadasu (2006). She has won two Tamil Nadu State Film Awards and a Filmfare Award.
Wikipedia gives her birth date as 12 October 1981, citing India Today; Wikidata gives 12 October 1980, so the year differs between sources. According to Wikipedia, citing a TeluguCinema.com interview, she was born in Mumbai into a Telugu family from Andhra Pradesh and grew up in Sharjah, where a Malayalam producer spotted her at a cricket match while she was in class 12.
Career
She debuted in the Malayalam film Ingane Oru Nilapakshi (2000), playing an aspiring dancer, and her first Tamil release was Ennavalle (2000) with Madhavan. She entered Telugu cinema in 2001 with Priyamaina Neeku; Tholi Valapu went unnoticed, but M. Raja’s Hanuman Junction became a major success. In Tamil, Unnai Ninaithu (2002) won her a Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress and Virumbukiren (2002) the Tamil Nadu State Film Award for Best Actress (The Hindu). Parthiban Kanavu (2003) brought her high praise.
In Telugu she starred in Venky with Ravi Teja, Sankranthi with Venkatesh, Radha Gopalam with Srikanth and Sri Ramadasu with Nagarjuna. In 2007 she appeared in Madhumasam and Maharadhi, and in 2009 in the Telugu thriller Amaravathi. She played a police officer in Bhavani IPS (2011) and starred opposite Nagarjuna again in the Telangana period film Rajanna.
In Malayalam she paired with Mohanlal in the hit Shikkar (2010) and has made five films with Mammootty. Her later Telugu films are S/O Satyamurthy (2015) and Vinaya Vidheya Rama (2019). In Tamil she appeared in Velaikkaran (2017) and The Greatest of All Time (2024), reuniting with Vijay. She has also hosted and judged Tamil television shows.
