Simran’s 14 Avatars


Pouring accolades prove that Tamilnadu’s biggest hype today is Simran’s brilliantly essayed 14 characters in the recent hit “Navavelli”. When it is deemed an achievement to enact dual roles in a single TV serial, the versatile actress Simran has simply donned 14 roles proving that acting runs in her veins.


“Simran Thirai” the mini-mega introduced to the small screen by Pyramid Saimira Productions International Ltd is on air from Monday to Friday on Jaya TV during the prime time 8.30.P.M. It is in the 5th story titled “Navavelli” the protagonist, imran has performed the 14 different roles.

Pyramid Saimira has entertained the TV viewers with a combination of diverse themes with “Simran Thirai” as each month’s story carries a different storyline, ranging from marriage and deceit, revenge and action, affection and rejection and now with “Navavelli” a spiritual journey. This format has undoubtedly brought in variety and excellence to the concept of mini-mega.

In “Navavelli” Simran appears as the Almighty Amman and her re-incarnations as earthly beings.


From a brave snake-charmer mesmerizing poisonous snakes to succumb to her tunes, an elegant flower-vendor, an intelligent soothsayer, a stylishly clad old-lady, a chattering auto driver reminding “Baasha” Rajinikanth, a colorfully dressed tribal lass from the mountains, a witty fortune-teller (Guguduppai Ponnu), an affluent society woman called Samayapuraththu Marilaxmi, a nurse from the Agraharam clan, Durga, the prisoner, a lower class servant armed with the apt Madrasi slang, a faithful devout fulfilling her vow by holding fire pots in her bare-hands and finally the ferocious Kaali in her Rudra Thaandavam, fighting the evil to protect her devotees, the actress has proved her that she is an connoisseur in the acting field.

Simran has indeed given a surplus of visual treat to her ardent fans. Accompanying her on this magnum opus were artistes O.A.K. Sundar, Anuradha Krishnamoorthy, Subbulaxmi and many others. It would not be wrong to justify that Simran Thirai is the best outlet for the actress’ talent.
