My Take
Meena is one of South Indian cinema's genuine institutions, and I don't say that lightly. Working across Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam, plus the odd Kannada and Hindi film, she built a body of work most actors would envy. People always talk about her expressive eyes and natural acting, and that reputation is backed by hardware, a Nandi Award and a Filmfare South. What I admire is the way she partnered with the biggest superstars without being overshadowed. A Chennai-born performer sustaining that kind of multilingual reach is exactly the sort of career that earns the word 'accomplished.'
