Biography
Nethra is an amazingly well read, smart and intelligent for a small-town girl.
When she left her little dream home to become a model, Nethra never thought that she?d actually be working with names such as Shyam Benegal, Gulzar and Mani Rathnam. But destiny, as they say, has its own ways?
After a three-year stint in modelling, Nethra was offered her first film. With her sultry, dusky looks and endless legs, no one really thought she?d be a hit. But Nethra surprised everyone by surpassing expectations in her first venture, Thakshak, followed by Bhopal Express.
Nethra first made waves when she won the Femina Look of the Year title in 1997. The earthy damsel now plans to make a sudden impact on Bollywood with her sensuous debut in Govind Nihalani's Thakshak. Nethra will follow that song and dance routine with the lead performance in adfilm-maker Mahesh Mathai's debut feature, Bhopal Express.
