5. Tabu as Senthaamarai: It is never easy to be the wife of one of the most powerful politicians of Tamil Nadu. But she was powerful in her own path. She was absolutely intellectual, strong, witty and more than that she was herself. She was a lover, a best friend and a companion to her husband in the movie ‘Iruvar’. She is the woman who is powerful and strong beyond imagination.

6. Shalini as Shakthi: As strong a woman naturally is, Shakthi from ‘Alaipayudhey’ was subtle and delicate. She was the most lovable daughter, the dedicated lover and the most understanding wife. She carries the mindset of middle-class emotions consisting of anger, sadness, and happiness. Rightfully named Shakthi, she was sensitive, but, to the world she was powerful.
