The bold and beautiful Neetu Chandra of ‘Yaavarum Nalam’ fame feels she is Aishwarya Rai because she has done films of Ram Gopal Varma and Jag Mundhra. Aishwarya Rai’s last two films were by these two directors. Not only that. Neetu has moved into an apartment in Mumbai Lokhandwala where Ash lived when she was fresh to Bollywood.

But at the recently held ‘Theeradha Vilaiyattu Pillai’ music launch function we heard Neetu Chandra saying she is planning to buy a house in Chennai as she is expecting more offers from south after ‘TVP’. May be she can buy a jet plane also to shuttle between the metros.

Looks like all beauty queens believe Tamil Cinema is the best place to kickstart their film career! Almost every Miss India in the recent past has made her presence felt down South before embarking on her Bollywood journey.

Aishwarya Rai debuted in Iruvar and continued to appear in Tamil films on and off (Jeans, Kandukondein Kandukondein). Now she will be seen after several years in Shankar’s Rajinikanth starrer Enthiran.

Sushmita Sen too tried her luck in South Indian films. She appeared opposite Nagarjuna in Rakshagan. Priyanka Chopra too made her cine debut with the Tamil film Tamizhan opposite Ilayathalapathy Vijay and Lara Dutta appeared with Action King Arjun in Aarasatchi.

The trend still continues, not only with beauty queens, but even Bollywood actresses doing more than shaking a leg or two in South Indian films. We have seen Kajol, Tabu, Sameera Reddy, Bipasha Basu, Kangna Ranaut, Tanisha, Riya Sen, Neetu Chandra and of course Mallika Sherawat in Kollywood. And then we have Genelia and Tamannaah who debuted in Hindi but found name and fame in Telugu and Tamil.
