Her role in Padithal Mattum Podhuma with Sivaji Ganesan as an educated wife to Sivaji Ganesan had brought her name. In the film she used to say that her husband was a fool because he never had education. At the same time, she used to claim she was well read and an intelligence and finally would say that her husban (Sivaji Ganesan) was a fool. Then her husband would ask her to repeat the word. In a fit of anger, she would call her husband a fool, always fool. Shivaji who could not tolerate it would beat her indiscriminately. The late actress remembered how the scene was picturised and she would say she had received severe blows from Sivaji Ganesan.
The actress had become a citizen of the USA and used to stay with her sons'. But, her love for the Indian soil never erased from her memory and she used to frequent India and would stay in her home in Madipakkam in Chennai.
She was not well for some days and got admitted to a private hospital. Her kidneys did not function, and the end came on the early hours of Tuesday.
She had acted in more than 77 Tamil films and some Telugu and Malayalam films.
The body will be taken for funeral cremation on Wednesday.
