Khushboo made her cinematic debut in 1988 with the Tamil film Dharmathin Thalaivan. Following that, she acted in a number of South Indian films and swiftly rose to popularity. Khushboo Sunder is well-known for being the first actress in Kollywood to have a shrine dedicated to her by her admirers. However, it did not last long due to her contentious comments about premarital intercourse.

Namitha, an actress who works predominantly in Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada, was born in Gujarat on May 10, 1981. When Namitha was at the height of her popularity in 2008, a devotee constructed a temple in Tamil Nadu, making her the second actress to erect a temple in her honour after Khushboo.

Hansika Motwani has worked in the film business for at least 10 years. People began comparing Hansika to actress Khushbu Sundar when she made her Kollywood debut with the film Padikathavan. During this period, her followers planned to establish a temple in Madurai. The chance to make history after Khusbhoo and Namitha was squandered since she rejected the idea.

A few years back, there were rumours that Lady Superstar Nayanthara would have a shrine built in her honour. When admirers approached the actress to seek her permission to build the shrine, she graciously refused their nice offer. Last year, she played the goddess in the Tamil film Mookuthi Amman in a hilarious manner.
