          In 2011, she entered politics by joining the Indian Youth Congress. She became a member of parliament from Mandya constituency in Karnataka after winning the by-election in 2013, becoming the youngest Member of Parliament in India at the time.[7][8]

          Early life[edit]

          Ramya was born in Bangalore, Karnataka on 29 November 1982 .[9][10] Her mother Ranjitha is a senior member of the Congress Party in Karnataka, while her foster father R T Narayan was an industrialist.[11][12] Ramya is from Vokkaliga caste by birth.[13][14] Her parents originally hail from Mandya.In August 2013,a person named B C Venkatesh Babu claimed that he is biological father of Ramya,and he had filed a petition in court regarding the paternity issue in April 2014.[15][16] JD(S) Legislator M. Srinivas has even called her a test-tube baby during Mandya Lok Sabha by-polls when Ramya didn’t mention her father’s name in the nomination papers.[17][18]Ramya said that her grandfather is G S Bore Gowda.[19][20][21][22][23][24][25] She studied at St. Hilda’s school in Ooty, and in Sacred Heart School (Church Park), Chennai, Tamil Nadu.[26] She pursued her graduation at St. Joseph’s College of Commerce, Bangalore.[26]

          Career[edit]

          Ramya has said that the first film offered to her was Ninagagi that eventually starred Radhika. Ramya was not chosen for the role citing her weight at that time[citation needed].Radhika.[2] She was then supposed to make her debut in Puneet Rajkumar‘s first film Appu[27] She made her acting debut in the 2003 Kannada-language film Abhi, alongside Puneet Rajkumar. The same year, she had another release in Kannada with Excuse Me, which also did well at the box office, and also stepped into Telugu filmdom with the film Abhimanyu.

          In 2004, Spandana debuted in the Tamil film industry, also under the name Ramya, with the film Kuththu alongside Silambarasan Rajendar, which managed only a mediocre run at the box office as did her next Tamil filmGiri. Her debut film, however, gave her the name ‘Kuthu’ Ramya, by which she was then popularly known in Tamil Nadu. She had two releases in Kannada as well, Ranga S. S. L. C. and Kanti, out of which the latter, a love story set against the backdrop of borders and language issues, was declared a major success. In 2005 she had four releases, all being Kannada films, with the latter three films Aakash, Gowramma andAmrithadhare becoming major box-office successes, whilst also garnering critical acclaim for Ramya’s performance and establishing her as a leading actress in Karnataka.[27][28][29]

          In 2006 she starred in Julie, a remake of the same-titled 1975 Hindi-language film. She played the role of a single, unwed mother in the film, which failed to attract audiences.[28] After her following release, Datta did average business at the box office, her next Kannada release, Jothe Jotheyali was a successful venture,[30][31] in spite of largely unfavorable reviews by critics.[32][33][34] Her final 2006 release, Kavitha Lankesh‘s Tananam Tananam, an average grosser that released to mixed reviews,[35][36] fetched Ramya her first Filmfare Award for Best Actress. She had described her role in the film as “little complex” and “challenging.”[37] In 2007, Ramya starred in three feature films; the first releasing, Arasu, co-starring Puneet Rajkumar and Meera Jasmine, was a huge hit.[38] She then appeared as a sex worker , which was made to create awareness about AIDS and was part of Mira Nair‘s AIDS Jaago project.[39][40] Her fourth 2007 release wasPolladhavan, where she acted against Dhanush. The film, released during the 2007 Deepavali period, was considered a dark horse success and made possible Ramya’s breakthrough in Tamil.[41] Rajinikanth was all praises for the entire crew of Polladhavan.[42]

          Her first 2008 release, the Kannada film Mussanjemaatu with Sudeep, was a big hit, for which she also received a nomination for a Best Actress Award at the 56th Filmfare Awards South. Her next film was the Tamil film Thoondil. Ramya later stated that she regretted accepting the film.[2] Later that year, she starred in the films Bombaat and Anthu Inthu Preethi Banthu, with the former becoming declared a “super hit” as well.[43] Her final release in 2008 was Gautham Menon‘s Vaaranam Aayiram for which she changed her screen name to her actual name Divya again, which is believed to have brought her more luck.[44] She had also dubbed in her own voice for Vaaranam Aayiram, which became a high critical as well as commercial success. She did not have any releases in 2009, since both her films Bhimoos Bang Bang Kids and Jothegaara got delayed heavily due to financial problems.[45]

          Her first release of 2010 Just Math Mathalli which released on 26 January 2010 was a huge success and it also received rave reviews. Her role in the film was also very much appreciated.[46] She had two more releases that year, the long delayed Jothegaaraeventually, and Kiccha Huccha. Her next release was the Tamil film Singam Puli opposite Jeeva, which released to mixed reviews, following which the romantic drama Sanju Weds Geetha released. The film opened to highly positive reviews, with Ramya being unanimously praised by critics for her performance, which was widely considered her best or one of her best in her career.[47][48][49] She was featured in Kannada movies like Dandam Dashagunam, remake of Kaakha Kaakha,Jhonny Mera Naam and Kadhal 2 Kalyanam in Tamil, starring alongside a newcomer Sathya,in 2011.

          Her first release in 2012 was a comedy drama Sidlingu, in which she portrays the role of a school teacher.[50] The next release in 2012 was a light-comedy movie Lucky,alongside Yash.She was also seen in semi-mythological movie Katari Veera Surasundarangi,opposite Upendra.In August 2013, Ramya announced that she may quit acting if she wins the election, to pursue a career in politics.[51] But, later in 2014, She was seen in Aryan ,alongside Sandalwood King Shivaraj Kumar

              This is the most exciting piece of news Sonakshi and Fawad fans will hear all day!

              Rumour mills suggest that Sonakshi Sinha and Fawad Khan have been approached to star in a film together. Last week, the makers of the film finalised Sonakshi as the female lead of the film and now sources close to the film suggest that Fawad might end up romancing Jr Shotgun in the film.
              The film is based on the popular Sahir Ludhianvi- Amrita Pritam- Imroz love triangle. While Sona will play Amrita, Fawad is said to be cast as her husband Imroz. Names for Sahir’s character are still been thrown around the table.
              For the uninitiated, Amrita Pritam was a popular Indian poet and writer whose unrequited love for Urdu poet and lyricist Sahir Ludhianvi became a talked- about topic back in the 1940s. Amrita later found solace in famous painter and writer Imroz’s love who accepted Amrita with full knowledge of her fourteen year long obsession with Sahir. The two lived together for four decades without having married each other.
              To have Sonakshi and Fawad as a part of what sounds like one of the most iconic love stories of all time has us really pumped! Who do you think will fit the bill as Sahir in this film?Subscribe to me on YouTube
