Early life and family


Ramya Nambeesan was born in Chottanikkara, Cochin, Kerala[1] to Subrahmaniam Unni and Jayasree.[2][3] Her father is a former theatre artiste, who was an active member of troupes such as "Jubilee" and "Harishree". She has a brother, Rahul,[2] who has worked as the music director in the Malayalam movie Philips and the Monkey Pen and as a playback singer in the film Thattathin Marayathu.[4] She attended the Mahatma Gandhi Public School, Ambadimala near Chottanikkara. She graduated with a bachelor's degree in Communicative English from St. Teresa's College, Ernakulam.[5]


Career


Ramya started her career as minor supporting roles in the following years in films including Sathyan Anthikad's satire film Narendran Makan Jayakanthan Vaka (2001),[6] and Gramophone (2003).[2][7][8]

She played her first and only leading role till date, as a bold dance teacher, is in the 2006 film Aanachandam.[9][10] Her subsequent projects, Changathipoocha (2007) and Panthaya Kozhi (2007) released to mixed reviews and offered hardly any scope for her,[11][12] failing to propel her career.[2] after the film went on to become a high commercial success.[13][14] In 2008, Anthiponvettam was her only Malayalam film of 2008, which opened to largely negative reviews.[15] In the following two years[16][17][18]

In 2011, Ramya who till then had appeared in a series of repetitive roles as a village belle,[19] undergoing an image makeover, choosing more serious, substantial and versatile roles.[20][21] Her first release of that year was Traffic, starring an ensemble cast. She portrayed Shwetha, a "stylish seductress", a character with negative shades.[20][22] Although her role in the film was short,[23] her performance was appreciated by critics. She next appeared in the thriller film Chaappa Kurish as Sonia, a secretary who has an affair with her colleague. She shot a long kissing scene with her co-star Fahad Fazil in the film – supposedly the first ever in Malayalam cinema — which upon release was termed as controversial, causing a great stir in the industry.[21][24] Ramya later stated: "An actress should always be ready to take risks if her character demands so. Even when I was aware that the two-minute intense scene could create waves, I was sure that it was inevitable as it suited the plot. A sense of necessity made me accept that scene. I think director Sameer Tahir brought out the best in me. In fact, I enjoyed doing the scene".[21] She went on to state that she did not regret "doing it"; she further credited the Tamil film industry for "propelling" her image makeover.[24] She was part of two Tamil productions, Ilaignan, scripted by former Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu M. Karunanidhi, and the romantic comedy Kullanari Koottam. She performed a comical role as Priya, a zoology student, in the latter, and received positive feedback. Pavithra Srinivasan from Rediff noted that she was "pretty, expressive, and does well with what she's been given".[25] She next appeared in a low-budget Telugu film by Ravi Babu, Nuvvila, featuring a cast of almost all newcomers, in which she played a "girl with a fetish for cooking".[26]

In Bachelor Party (2012) she was seen in a "very stylish role",[27][28] and Ivan Megharoopan (2012) featured her in a cameo appearance.[24] She also signed up Saji Surendran's comedy film Husbands in Goa (2012), in which she played a "docile wife",[27] and an offbeat film by Priyanandanan, titled Oru Yathrayil (2013).[29] She completed the shoot of Damaal Dumeel (2014), which is a black comedy thriller directed by Shree. She play a new-gen girl, opposite Vaibhav in the film. And Naalu Policeum Nalla Irundha Oorum (2015), in which she is paired opposite Arulnithi.[30] But later, the actress again made a mistake by accepting similar kinds of roles; especially the characters with negative shades, in the second innings as well.[citation needed]

Ramya Nambeesan, who is extremely busy in Malayalam and Telugu, is back in Tamil with Sethupathi (2016). The bubbly actress says that she is choosy about her scripts and does not want to be typecast.[31] Nambeesan been critically applauded for essaying most wonderfully the wife of Sethupathi (portrayed by actor Vijay Sethupathi). One of the high points of the movie is her riveting performance that includes a range of emotions—from love to anger to fear.[32] She made a debut in the Kannada Style King (2016) opposite Ganesh.[33] Ramya Nambeesan and Sibiraj had worked in critically acclaimed 2017 film Sathya (2017).[34] She was successively in Tamil films with Mercury (2018), Seethakaathi (2018), Agni Devi (2019) and Natpuna Ennanu Theriyuma (2019). Remya Nambeesan was seen in the Malayalam movie Virus (2019) directed by Aashiq Abu.[35]

Before her entry into the film industry, she was hosting a phone-in music show Hello, Good Evening on the Malayalam channel Kairali TV.[5] Having learned carnatic music from her childhood, she has sung several numbers for devotional albums on Chottanikarai Bhagavathi.[36] In 2011, composer and music director Sharreth called Ramya to record a song for the Malayalam biographical film on P. Kunhiraman Nair, Ivan Megharoopan,[2][37] after she had expressed her desire to sing to Sharreth at a reality show.[38] She has since sung playback for several films including her own films like Bachelor Party, Up & Down: Mukalil Oralundu and Arikil Oraal which she has acted in and for films she was not part of, like Thattathin Marayathu and Amen. Her singing has been praised and got her offers from other South Indian film industries too.[39] She has sung for the Telugu film Telugabbai, for the Tamil film Pandiya Naadu and will be singing for a Kannada film.[39] She got nominated for a Filmfare Award for Best Female Playback Singer – Malayalam for her song "Andilonde" from Ivan Megharoopan.[citation needed] She won many other awards for the song "Muthuchippi Poloru" from Thattathin Marayathu, which was also one of the top Malayalam songs of 2012.[citation needed] She has worked with leading, award-winning music directors like Shaan Rahman,[4] Prashant Pillai, M. Jayachandran,[40] Gopi Sunder and D. Imman.[41][42]
