TV helped me: Asmitha

It���������s every actress���������s dream to appear dazzling onscreen. But as fate would have it, Asmitha had to portray an avatar sans glam and look very ordinary in her film Karunkali.
���������That���������s because I play a slum dweller in this film. My character is called Sengodi and I had to sport a dark, tanned look throughout the film. You wouldn���������t even be able to recognise me in the film,��������� she chuckles.
Narrating the experience working in the film directed by Kalanchiyam of Mitta Mirasu fame, Asmitha says, ���������I was quite apprehensive while shooting for the film.I rehearsed a lot to get the body language right,��������� says the actress who has two more films in her kitty.
She feels her stint with TV, where she anchored a programme as a child artiste, helped her get a break in films.
��������� Being in touch with television right from a young age helped me get into films .And now I���������m eagerly awaiting the release of Karunkali, which should happen in a month or two.���������
