The actress, who has appeared this year in films like Dragon and JSK: Janaki V vs State of Kerala and Telugu films like Paradha and Kishkindhapuri, recently revealed she once thought she could never become an actress. School rules and the idea that only toppers could handle big dialogues made her doubt her dreams.

Despite these doubts, Anupama has built a versatile career. Her recent success with Kishkindhapuri proves she can shine in commercial films while taking on heroine-centric roles. She is now filming Bison, the Tamil movie Lockdown, and the Malayalam film Pet Detective. These projects reflect her desire to explore varied characters and challenge herself, establishing her as one of South India’s most promising young actresses.
Anupama’s journey is a reminder that talent finds a way. From doubting her dreams to becoming a recognized name across multiple industries, she has shown persistence, courage, and curiosity.
