Biography

Abhinaya Anand is a South Indian film actress and model born on November 13, 1991, in Kadalur district, Karnataka, to a minor film artist Anand and his wife Hemalatha. Despite being born with hearing and speech impairments, Abhinaya has been acting in various advertisements since her childhood, thanks to years of therapy and training that helped her partially overcome her speech and hearing impairments.

From a very young age, Abhinaya's interest in both modeling and acting was well noticed and encouraged by her father. She made her acting debut in Naadodigal (2009),a Malayalam movie, at the age of 17, and went on to reprise the role in its Telugu and Kannada remakes.

Abhinaya has mastered sign language and lipreading in English, and has undergone a risky operation called Cochlear Implantation that has helped her hear with the help of a machine. She would write her script dialogues in English and practice with the help of her mother, and co-artistes would also communicate with her, guiding and helping her. The collective efforts of the directors, her parents, and Abhinaya's determination ensured that the teenager did most of her parts without retakes.

Abhinaya, who loves pets and Sudoku, has discontinued her studies at Std X to focus on her career. Her father, who worked in Tamil and Telugu films as a minor artist in few supporting roles, was a major inspiration for her to follow in his footsteps. Her photo session in a model well gathered the attention of directors, especially Lawrence Ragavendra, a South Indian actor and choreographer.

Abhinaya acted in various television programs and advertisements, which eventually resulted in superior facial expressions. Her dancing skills were highly impressive and attention-seeking. Director Samudrakani gave her a chance in the film "Nadodikal" after appreciating her photo session and dancing skills. Being highly determined and hopeful, Abhinaya stunned everyone with her amazing acting skills, even though her voice was being dubbed.

After the success of this film, Abhinaya started settling in the Tamil film industry and eventually into the Telugu and Kannada film industries after getting various offers. Telugu Film Actor Ravi Teja stood as another inspiration in her life, apart from her father, who morally supported her acting. Despite being physically challenged, Abhinaya literally posed a challenge against various young actors of her age with her impressive acting skills.
