Who is Yashika Anand?
Model-turned-actress Yashika Anand started her film journey with Santhanam's Inimey Ippadithan in 2015. Unfortunately, her portions were deleted from the Tamil film. Hence, Jiiva and Kajal Aggarwal's Kavalai Vendam became her debut film.
Later, she was seen in the films like Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru and adult-comedy Iruttu Araiyil Murattu Kuththu. However, it was Kamal Haasan-hosted Bigg Boss Tamil 2 which made her a household name among the Tamil audience.
Thereafter, she worked in the movies like Maniyaar Kudumbam, NOTA, Kazhugu 2, and Mookuthi Amman. Currently, she was working in the films like Raja Bheema, Pambattam, Sulphur, and Kadamaiyai Sei.
