Bindhu Madhavi life and biography

Bindu Madhavi Reddy is an Indian model and film actress, who mainly works in the Telugu film industry. She has made her debut in the 2008 Telugu film, Avakai Biryani.

Born and brought up in Hyderabad, Bindu did her studies in Chennai, she is a grad in biotechnology and had nurtured a desire to do MS in the US. Writing GRE, doing part time job, studying in the US and being independent was her idea of living but now she has put her plans on the backburner.

While she was in college she did modeling, some commercial advertisements and the saree advertisement fetched her the role in Avakai Biryani. "In Chennai one gets to do basically jewelries or saree ads, all you have to do is wear a saree, deck yourself up in some finery, look this way and that way and just smile," she says.

Though she wore a saree in the movie or for the advertisements, she can never carry it off well, even for family functions, weddings Bindu stresses that she avoids sarees.

The actress is on a shuttle service, moving to and fro from Hyderabad to Chennai doing Cheran's movie. Earlier when she was in a hostel for five years in Chennai and her parents in Hyderabad, she would do the same.

After Avakai Biryani she didn't sign a movie for a long time because she wasn't sure if she would take movies as her career. Also the anchoring on television was for just one show. She had interviewed Nagarjuna, one of her favorite actors.

She says, "I felt the talk shows are too early for me to take it up regularly. I never felt so nervous. Answering questions is easier but questioning someone is tough. You are like..what next should I ask?"

After her debut film everyone's offering her goody good roles of a village belle which she's politely refusing. The upcoming movie has her playing a contemporary college-going girl and in other a very glamorous and a arrogant character.

She says, "I love soft, romantic movies, I can't stand action stuff. I do respect people who take up such roles but I don't see myself doing it." The 22-year-old Bindu leads a very chilled out life, hanging around with friends in coffee shops, or tagging her dad along for a round of badminton.
