Kavya Madhavan

Kavya Madhavan

Kavya Madhavan started out young on screen. Not long after, she appeared in Pookalam Varavayi back in 1991. Another role followed years later, this time in Azhakiya Ravanan by 1996. The shift to lead roles came quietly through Chandranudikunna Dikkil. She appeared in several Malayalam movies, also stepping into a few Tamil ones. From childhood, art caught her attention - Nileshwaram GLP Kavya, shaped by schooling at both local and Rajas High. Her dancing began through guidance from one dedicated instructor. Year after year, the Kasaragod region's art scene carried her presence.

Mithun goes by P. Mithun, sibling to Kavya, whose parents carry the names Madhavan and Shyama­la. A career in fashion design shapes his days. From Neeleswaram roots stretch into Kasaragod’s soil. On February fifth, two thousand nine, vows tied Kavya to Nishal Chandra. His work supports the National Bank of Kuwait as a technical guide. Their union formed beneath temple eaves - Kollur Mookambika stood witness. By then it was already over - two years after starting, gone by May 2011. That changed when she walked into a new life beside Dileep, a name known in Malayalam cinema, sealing it on November's twenty-fifth day of 2016.

Out of the blue, Kavya Madhavan stepped away from films when she married Dileep. Life now? It hums along quietly beside him. When celebrations pop up among loved ones, she shows up with him by her side. A long time ago, back in 1991, it began - a movie called Chandranudikunna Dikkil, directed by Kavya Lal Jose, co-starring Pookalam Varavayi. Her list of movies flows like this: Darling, Darling, Thenkasipattanam, Sahayathrikakku Snehapoorvam, Rakshasa Rajavu, Dhosth, Onnaman, Oomappenninu Uriyadappayyan, Meesamadhavan, Thilakkam, Sadanandante Samayam, Mizhirandilum, Pulivalkalyanam, Perumazhakalam - right through to her latest role before stepping back.
