The Travancore Trio
Sisters who conquered the silver screen
Many actors, dancers and heroines have since emerged from Kerala. None have had the impact like the Travancore sisters.
Bharatanatyam and Tamil cinema have had a long association. Several noted actors were dancers and several practitioners of Bharatanatyam were invited to perform on screen. At most times all of these were Tamils or of Tamil origin, barring a few odd exceptions. But it took great guts for three sisters from Kerala to come and rule the Tamil industry.
