Filmography

Biography

She was first widely known in 1994 for playing the role of Fah, a nice lovely young woman in TV commercials for Mistine. This commercial is well-known because it is the first TV commercial in Thailand to be presented as a series, and also the official launch of Mistine, Thai cosmetic brand.[1]

Sinitta's younger sister Laila is very famous in Thailand for her film work and modeling career. Around 2001 Sinitta decided to take an acting/directing course at Srinakharinwirot University, Prasarnmit Campus in Bangkok. It was there that she learned how to act without over-acting, like she had been doing in her previous 20-odd soap opera roles. She spent some time as a television host and was taking a Thai cooking class when she was approached by Pen-Ek Ratanaruang for the role of Noi in Last Life in the Universe, a role which kept her from quitting the film business altogether.
