Reshmi Menon

Reshmi Menon is an Indian actress who predominantly appears in Tamil films.

Career In 2008, Menon was pursuing Visual Communication at Women's Christian College, Chennai, a course she enrolled in because she "loved the media". She accompanied her friend to the auditions for the Prakash Raj production, Inidhu Inidhu (2010), and was offered the lead role. She shot for the film while still studying, and had to skip classes at WCC to work in the film. Sify's critic said that she "sticks out like a sore thumb". Sekhar Kammula, the director of the original film, stated that he forgot Tamannaah and could only see Reshmi, when he saw the remake. The film was shot over a period of 35 days in 2010, but remains unreleased.

In 2011, she had her second release, Theneer Viduthi, the directorial debut of music director S. S. Kumaran. Reshmi played a "bubbly and talkative girl" considering Reshmi's performance, Sify stated that she "settles into her character so comfortably that one believes that she is indeed from Bodinayakanur".

Her next release, the comedy-thriller Burma, came three years later. It received generally favorable reviews and her performance was well received, although critics felt that her role was insubstantial.

Her latest films include the fantasy thriller Urumeen, Kirumi, a "drama with elements of a psychological thriller", Natpadhigaram 79, a tale of friendship directed by Ravichandran and the romance flick Hyderabad Love Story, her maiden Telugu venture.

Personal life Menon got engaged to actor Bobby Simha on 8 November 2015, and they married on 22 April 2016. Their daughter was born on 2 May 2017. On 11 November 2019 she gave birth to their second child, a boy.
