Poorna, born as Shamna Kasim, is a South Indian actress who hails from Kerala. She started her career in the entertainment industry as a dancer in reality dance competition 'Super Dancer' on Amrita TV. In 2004, the dancing star debuted as an actress in the Malayalam film 'Manju Poloru Penkutty'.
Ever since, the actress has been active in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam cinema. She is even labeled as the 'Ghost Queen of Telugu Films' for her excellent portrayal of ghost roles in the 2010s.
Recently, Poorna has been harassed by four men allegedly seeking Rs. 1 lakh (RM 5630), and when she denied their demands, the men threatened to spoil her reputation. They even tried to capture photos of her house.
Shocked and disturbed by the incident, Poorna's mother made a police complaint. The police have arrested Sharath, Ashraf of Kaipamangalam, Rafeeq of Vadanappally, and Ramesh of Kadavannoor and taken them under their custody for further investigation.
On the professional front, Poorna will be next seen as VK Sasikala in the former Tamilnadu CM Jayalalithaa's biopic 'Thalaivi'.
