After her first Tamil language movie, M. Kumaran S/O Mahalakshmi in where she reprised her role from the Telugu version of the movie, she began to receive many offers from well known directors in India. The movie then went on in being one of the biggest hits in 2005.
Having faced initial hiccups with her debut movie Ullam Ketkumae still lying in the cans and her Chennaiyil Oru Mazhaikalam with Surya stalled, Asin has proved her critics wrong that she is an unlucky actress. Before Asin could even realize it she was flooded with offers in Tamil making her a strong contender for the top slot.
She has been having a steady career with many more of her upcoming films with top stars such as Kamal Hassan. All her films in Tamil have been huge hits and her recent film, Ghajini, won her many accolades for her performance and brought her into the limelight. Ever since Ghajini released to a thunderous public response, Asin has become the toast of Tamil cinema. Aamir Khan called her personally and congratulated her on a job well done in her film, Ghajini. And is apparently is going to act opposite her in the yet-to-be named hindi remake of her tamil hit Ghajini.
Asin is almost working round the clock with Vikram, Vijay, Ajit and Surya, the superstars of Tamil film industry. She has also been signed to endorse the prouducts of Pepsi in India.
