Meet India’s first actress to give Rs 1000 crore film, not Anushka Shetty, Deepika Padukone, Rashmika, Priyanka Chopra, Aishwarya, Nayanthara, name is….

In the world of cinema, box office numbers often serve as the barometer of success. For years, crossing Rs 1000 crore at the box office was considered a huge milestone, primarily dominated by male-led films. However, history was re-written when an actress gave a Rs 1000 crore film. While many may think that this actress is Aishwarya Rai, Katrina Kaif, or Madhuri, this actress is none of them. This actress has carved her own path in the industry, balancing massive blockbusters in the South with notable roles in Bollywood.

The actress we are discussing is someone who started her acting debut at 15 with the Hindi film Chand Sa Roshan Chehra (2005). The same year, she stepped into South Indian cinema — and the rest is history. If you are wondering who this actress is, then let us tell you we are talking about the one and only Tamannaah Bhatia.

Tamannaah Bhatia is a well-known face in Bollywood as well as the South industry. Tamannaah’s breakthrough came with the Telugu film Happy Days in 2007, followed by Tamil films like Kalloori and Ayan, making her one of the known actresses in both cinemas.

In 2015, Tamannaah became a part of Baahubali: The Beginning, which was a huge hit. The film’s worldwide collection was Rs 600-650 crore. Two years later, Tamannaah appeared in the second part of the film — Baahubali 2: The Conclusion. This movie took Tamannaah’s career to new heights. The film earned Rs 1810 crore worldwide, making the actress the first heroine to give a Rs 1000 crore film.

Coming to Tamannaah’s work front, the actress was recently seen in Ajay Devgn’s Raid 2.
