Keerthy Suresh has proved her mettle as an actress in the recently released Savitri biopic Mahanati (Nadigaiyar Thilagam in Tamil) where the actress played the late superstar with such grace. With critics and audience lauding her performance, it’s clear that the actress has finally shed her cute-girl image and has embraced a more mature persona on screen. Keerthy Suresh’s ‘Mahanati’ completed a year in cinema and even today it is one of the most finest films ever made not to forget the impeccable acting Keerthy did donning the role of superstar Savithri. She was unstoppable as an actress ever since but her roles were not quite as charming as ‘Mahanati’.
The actress has now won a National Award as the best actress for her excellent performance in the biopic. As a thank you note to her fans, Keerthy posted an emotional message on social media.
Thank you 😊🙏 pic.twitter.com/7Qx60z18Xq
