Simran

No one in Tamil cinema can beat her dance moves even today. She is an eternal beauty with great acting skills, and she ruled the Tamil industry for over 10 years without any competition. She was always the number one.

An all-in-all actress who excels in beauty, dance, and acting. There's still no replacement for this forever dream girl!

Such a wonderful artist, Simran is in Indian cinema. No one can beat her in dance, acting, glamour, and her presence.

Savitri

The greatest actress and the only one to be named Nadigaiyar Thilagam. She deserved it, as she was comparable to Sivaji in many aspects.

Savithri Garu and Saroja Devi Garu are the only actresses to be called legends. Their period was the golden era of Indian cinema. They are incomparable with Sridevi and Madhuri Mam in Indian cinema. They are the true legends.

Keerthy Suresh

Jyothika

She is the best actress in Tamil Cinema. Not only in her second innings, but she has also acted in many experimental films like Snegithiye, June R, Three Roses, Pachaikili Muthucharam, and Mozhi in her first innings. She didn't depend on glamour and took risks by acting in films that didn't have a powerful hero to market the film.
She has the same charisma even after so many years. She is shaping her career while also being an inspiration to many married women.
