From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Manorama (b. 26 May 1943, Mannargudi, Tamil Nadu, India), fondly called Aachi (granny), is a Tamil comedy actress who has acted in more than 1000 films, 100 stage performances, and a few television serials.
Career
She started her acting career as a drama artist, which was more popular those days. She slowly migrated from dramas to cinemas just as most actors did those days. During her initial days in the cine field, she concentrated more on comedy. She was given equally challenging roles alongside the well known comedian Nagesh. They made an excellent pair and gave many praiseworthy comedies.
Her role in Thillana Mohanambal was much appreciated and noticed even with the presence of great stalwarts like Sivaji Ganesan and Natiya Peroli (Danseuse) Padmini in the movie. Ever since, she was provided with more scope in varied roles in addition to comedy. She took each responsibilty with such an ease which made the Tamil industry recognise her immense talent.
