Komal Jha's Acting Journey

Komal Jha started her acting career in 2009. She had a small role as a college student in the Bollywood film 3 Idiots. She appeared in the song "All Is Well!". At that time, acting was not her main job. She moved to Dubai because a construction company hired her from her college campus.

After her first Malayalam movie, Komal worked on two Telugu films. These were Kalachakram and Parvathi. However, these movies were never released. Feeling disappointed, Komal went back to Dubai. She thought about leaving the film industry. But then, she was offered two new movies. These were Nimbe Huli in Kannada and Ramachari in Telugu. Komal was not happy with how well these films did. This was because their release dates were delayed.

New Movie Roles

Even though her film Nimbe Huli was delayed, Komal got three more movies in the same year. These films were Priyathama Neevachata Kushalama, Chinna Cinema, and Eduruleni Alexander. She played different kinds of characters in these movies. She was a college girl, a younger version of an old woman, and the girlfriend of a police officer.

Because of these roles, she started getting invited to public events often. Komal Jha decided to take a break from South Indian films. She wanted to focus on her Bollywood debut. She said in an interview that she had done many films but did not get enough recognition. She felt it was time to move to a better place. She also spent some time working on her singing.
