Archana Singh scales new heights—on screen and in the Himalayas!
Archana Singh may be a fresh face in Telugu cinema, but she's already a known name in Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam film industries. A bold and beautiful actress with an MBA to her credit, Archana recently made headlines for her daring feat—completing the Everest Base Camp trek in the Himalayas.
Hailing from Karnataka, Archana is the perfect blend of brains, beauty, and bravery. With a background that includes stints at Wipro, the ITC Group of Hotels, and a career as an air hostess with Kingfisher and Jet Airways, she has seamlessly transitioned into the world of cinema. Her Telugu debut in Damayanti – Kaushik Varma earned her appreciation, and she's now stepping into Malayalam cinema with My Father – My Hero, which is also being made in English.
Off screen, Archana is a trained classical dancer who performs stage shows in her spare time. Fluent in six languages, including Telugu and Tamil, she's as articulate as she is adventurous.
Reflecting on her Himalayan expedition, Archana said, 'The adrenaline rush from acting doesn't compare to the thrill of trekking Everest. It pushed me beyond my limits and gave me the confidence to overcome fears I didn't know existed.'
With her sights now set on more substantial roles in Telugu films, Archana Singh is clearly on a mission to scale new peaks—both in her career and in life.

Kannada is ancient, living language, says Banu
Deepa Bhasthi, who won the accolades for the translation of the Kannada work into English, told reporters, 'This is a silly argument, any language for that matter does not get its status from how ancient the language is, and such debates are meaningless and unnecessary because all languages are important, and every language has its own status.' Speaking at the event, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, said, 'Literature has the power to unify and it should be a tool to bring society together rather than divide it. Banu Mushtaq has elevated the global recognition of Kannada literature. Her achievement is a matter of pride for the entire Kannada speaking world.' The CM said the state government will fund the translation of renowned Kannada literary works into English to promote the state's literary heritage. He also declared Rs 10 lakh each for Banu and Deepa Bhasthi in recognition of their contributions to literature.
