Biography of Manorama
The future star of Indian cinema was born in 1937.
Manorama made her big screen debut in 1958, when she played a role in the film Maalaiyitta Mangai (translated from Tamil as "Evening Dress").
After her successful debut, the actress was often invited to other film projects.
The total number of films in which Manorama has acted exceeds 1500.
In addition, the actress took part in at least 1000 theatrical productions.
Due to the huge number of roles played, Manorama was included in the Guinness Book of Records in 1985.
However, it is possible that there are actors who have "overtaken" the Indian celebrity in the number of roles. However, the difficulties in compiling a complete filmography and a complete list of theatrical works of many actors do not allow us to make an unambiguous conclusion.
It is worth emphasizing that Manorama is a laureate of the National Film Award of India. And at the beginning of the 21st century, the actress was awarded the Padma Shri order.
Manorama passed away in 2015. The celebrity died at the age of 79.
