The Rowdy Baby girl and Nilgiri beauty Sai Pallavi continues to rule the south film industry with her role as Malar in the Malayalam flick Premam, where she looks completely homely.

Everyone may think she is a Malayalee but she is not. She belongs to a different community called Badaga, and the community is situated on the hills of Nilgiris.

For a moment, people may think the beautiful actress is from Kerala as she looks stunning in that white saree with golden border. The actress hails from Kotagiri in Nilgiris, Tamil Nadu. She belongs to the Badaga community, which speaks Badagu and this language is spoken roughly by 1.5 lakh population.

Sai Pallavi managed to complete MBBS, and she had acted in a few films as a child artist. During her college days, she used dress up like a Malayalee and even take part in Pookalam during the Onam festival.

If not an actress, would Sai Pallavi have become a doctor?
