![]() When there started the mega serial era, Sona got her share in the form of ‘Charulatha’ (Surya TV). Unlike today, the production controllers of that period used to go around searching for new faces. Her first film was ‘Thoovalkottaram’ by Sathyan Anthikkad. “He has been my pillar of support,” she says about her husband, an accomplished cameraman. Post her marriage with Udayan Ambadi in 1996 (“a love-cum-arranged marriage”), Sona continued to act. May be, because I didn’t know much about acting then.” “Having given many dance performances, I didn’t have any tension facing the camera. Sona was studying at Government Women’s College when she had her acting debut, thanks to her dancing prowess, through the evergreen serial ‘Oru Kudayum Kunju Pengalum’, telecast by the good-old Doordarshan. She is also part of Thaha’s ‘Pachuvum Kovalanum’ (with Mukesh and Jyothirmayi). This classical dancer-turned- actress would soon be seen in ‘Sarkar Colony’ directed by Jayakrishnan, alongside Mukesh, Devayani, Jagadish and Ashokan. I have got my share of good roles,” she says with immense satisfaction. “I am really lucky that I have never been kept out of films for the reason that I came from television. So too the umpteen telefilms and serials, the recent ones being ‘Maanasaputhri’ and ‘Autograph’ (both aired on Asianet). Films like ‘Arayannangalude Veedu’, ‘Neythukaran’, ‘Arimpara’, ‘Naran’, ‘Naalu Pennungal’, ‘Passenger’, ‘Manassinakkare’ and ‘Kerala Cafe’ gave her much to cheer about. The state film and television awards in her kitty bear testimony to her talent. Sona is among the lucky few artistes who’ve had good roles both in cinema and on mini screen. I play Innocent’s wife, who is of a very dominating nature.” “I am very hopeful about the movie by Ajmal. ![]() And she is planning to focus on films for the time being and is absolutely excited about the lead role she would be essaying opposite Innocent in ‘Dr Innocent Aanu’. Now with a 21-year-old career behind her, she is all happy. This trained classical dancer and a Commerce graduate with a PGDCA certificate never thought that she would ever have an acting career at all. I had this wrong notion that I could see lots of money!” J.Sona Nair couldn’t stop giggling thinking about her ultimate ambition once upon a time till fate landed her before the camera.
