Bhagyalakshmi (born 1 November 1961) is an Indian actress, activist, and dubbing artist. She works predominantly in the Malayalam film industry, working with over 800 actresses and in 4,700 films. She has collaborated with actresses such as Shobana, Revathi, and Urvashi.[1] [2] [3] Bhagyalakshmi's autobiography, Swarabhedangal,[4] was awarded the Kerala Sahitya Akademi Award for Biography and Autobiography.[5]
Bhagyalakshmi began dubbing for young performers at the age of ten,[6] and debuted as an actress in Manassu (1973).[7] She made her film dubbing debut in Aparathi (1977), and from 1978 to 1980 continued to dub films for child actors and supporting actress. She later rose to prominence in Kolilakkam (1981), in which she dubbed for Sumalatha. Her breakthrough came in the Malayalam film industry with Nokkethadhoorathu Kannum Nattu (1984). In 2021 she competed in the reality TV show Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 3, but was evicted on day 49.
She has won the Kerala State Film Award for Best Dubbing Artist three times.[8] She was also a traveller who works for Safari channel for a special program "Ente Yatre".
Bhagyalakshmi was born on 1 November 1962 in Kozhikode, Kerala, India to Kumaran Nair and Bhargavi Amma. She has an older sister Indira Nair, and a brother Unni Nair.[9] Both of her parents died while she was young.
She started her career as a dubbing artist at the age of 10 and went on to complete her pre-university course while working in the film industry.
Bhagyalakshmi married K. Ramesh Kumar on 27 October 1985.[10] The couple has two sons. They separated in 2011 and divorced in September 2014.[11]
Bhagyalakshmi published her autobiography, Swarabhedangal,[12] [13] which was selected by Nielsen Data for its best-seller list, the first time a Malayalam book had been selected.[14] [15]
On 26 September 2020, Bhagyalakshmi and two other activists, Diya Sana and Sreelakshmi Arakkal, poured black motor oil on a YouTube vlogger named Vijay P. Nair at his Thiruvananthapuram residence. Nair had uploaded a number of derogatory videos about women, and the trio claims there had been no action on the multiple complaints they had filed with police.[16] They also alleged that one of his videos was a personal insult to her, even though her name was not explicitly mentioned. She and the other two were charged with non-bailable offences, including trespass and intimidation.[17]
