Anupama Marks Ten Years And Drops Advice For Newcomers

Anupama Parameswaran is wrapping up a busy 2025. She’s been part of films like Dragon, Kishkindha Puri, The Pet Detective, and Bison. And hey, this year also marks her ten-year journey in films.

In a recent chat, she opened up about how much has changed since her debut. “Ten years have completely changed my life. Feels like I just stepped into films yesterday. I never thought I’d become an actress. I was terrified at first. But this journey taught me to trust myself and stay strong,” she said. She added that the love from Telugu fans, especially during her first film A Aa, will always mean a lot.

She also talked about the whole “first lead, second lead” thing. Her take? “Honestly, those tags feel unnecessary now. In Premam, the characters I, Sai Pallavi, and Madonna played were all important. What matters is if your character has weight, not how much screen time you get.” Solid point, right? She clearly cares more about the role than the label.

Even with a jam-packed year, Anupama stays grounded. She’s thankful for every director, every producer, every opportunity. “Every role teaches me something new. I feel lucky that my work keeps challenging me and helping me grow,” she said. Fans love how natural she is on screen, no pretense, just acting that feels real.

Looking back at ten years, her advice for newcomers is simple: trust yourself, focus on your craft, and don’t get caught up in labels or numbers. It’s been a decade of learning, growing, and surprises,and something tells you she’s just getting started.
