Actress Padmapriya was introduced to Tamil Cinema with the film 'Thavamai Thavamirunthu' where she paired with actor-director Cheran. Reportedly, Padmapriya is academically well qualified and has always shown interest in stories and even attempts her hand at writing.
Apart from playing heroine in 'Thavamai Thavamirunthu' she also assisted director Cheran while filming.
She then proceeded to act in other movies including 'Mirugam' where an unfortunate tussle ensued with the director of the film forcing her to complain against him.
She is currently working with Cheran again for the film 'Pokkisham' and the movie's shooting is going on in Gobichettipalayam. In this film too she works in two capacities. One as the heroine and the other as assistant director to Cheran.
'I am very happy to be the assistant of director Cheran. He is a very talented director and I am gifted to work with him', says Padmapriya.
She comes to the sets every morning as early as 7 and performs the duties of assistant director religiously.
After 'Pokkisham' she would be pairing with Siddharth for a Hindi film.
