It is indeed the much awaited time for actress Anjali while her career in the film industry is considered.

She started off her journey with the Katradhu Tamizh with Jeeva in Tamil cinema. Her very first movie showcased her acting potentials to the filmmakers and fans. However, ironically, she did not get many good offers as expected. Big banner movies became elusive for her, as she did leading roles in movies under the small banners.

However, when Angaadi Theru had its release, she again proved to the Tamil cinema industry that she is indeed an actress with great acting talents. The year of 2011 turned out to be a great year for her, as she starred in the multi starrers Mankatha and Engeyum Eppodhum. Mankatha became a box office blockbuster and Engeyum Eppodhum became a hit too. In addition to this, Engeyum Eppodhum gave her the opportunity to garner quite a few awards, including the best lead actress award in Vijay awards, for her scintillating performance opposite Jai in the movie.
