Debutante and budding actress Priya Prakash Varrier, who took the netizens by storm with a wink, is celebrating her 21sr birthday on September 12, 2020. It was surreal to see the massive popularity she earned through her song. The Internet had gone crazy on a viral Malayalam song, Manikya Malaraya Poovi from the film Oru Ardaar Love, which featured a teenage boy and a girl, who express their love for each other through their eyes.


The winks and their eyebrow-conversation is something that the social media couldn't stop gushing about. Netizens went crazy behind Priya's smile and created dozens of memes on it. But, who is this girl Priya? 



Priya has got more to her than just being called the 'Wink Girl'. She is also a model, who was initially supposed to do a small role in the Malayalam film, but thanks to her acting chops, she bagged the film's lead role. The magic of wink was so powerful that she became a huge sensation even before Oru Adaar Love's release.

She currently enjoys a massive popularity of more than 7.1 million followers and is giving some cut-throat competition to the actresses down South.

Priya has also been felicitated as the 'Most influential person on social media'.

Before doing a full-fledged feature film, Priya has also done a short film titled Third Flip. Varrier has also walked the ramp for renowned fashion brands. Priya was born to Prakash Varrier and Preetha Prakash Varrier on 12 September 1999. Her father Prakash Varrier is an excise officer, while her mother Preetha is a homemaker. She also has a younger brother named Prasiddh Varrier.

Not just this, there were also reports of Priya being approached by Bollywood's bigwigs for films and commercials. Now, the actress is all set to woo the audience with her entry in Bollywood. The actress is set to make her Bollywood acting debut with the film Sridevi Bungalow, along with Giorgia Andriani and Arbaaz Khan. The film is delayed due to the pandemic outbreak, and the makers are yet to make any official announcement.

Priya's second Hindi film Love Hackers is directed by Mayank Prakash Srivastava and will be shot in Lucknow, Delhi, Gurgaon and Mumbai.
