Ileana D'Cruz (born 1 November 1987)[1][2] is an Indian film actress, who predominantly appears in Telugu cinema. Starting her career as a model, she made her feature film debut in Y. V. S. Chowdhary's 2006 Telugu film Devadasu, for which she won the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut – South.
She then went on to appear in blockbusters like Pokiri (2006), Jalsa (2008), Kick (2009), and Julayi (2012), establishing herself as one of Tollywood's leading actresses.[3] D'Cruz made her Kollywood debut earlier in 2006 with Kedi and made a comeback in Shankar's Nanban (2012).[4] In 2012, she made her Bollywood debut with Anurag Basu's critically and commercially successful Barfi!, for which she received critical appreciation and the
D'Cruz was born in Mumbai, Maharashtra as the second child to Ronald D'Cruz and Samira.[6] She has three siblings — older sister Farrah, younger brother Rhys and youngest sister Eileen.[7] Her first name comes from Greek mythology, meaning Helen of Troy.[1][8] While growing up, she lived in Goa for about seven years.[9][10]
During that time, the manager of the hotel her mother was working in, suggested that she has a beautiful face with a vibrant smile and should start modelling and fixed a meeting with Marc Robinson. Though initially reluctant, she was persuaded and her first portfolio was created in January 2003, which she described as a "disaster". She began gaining notice through photo shoots and ramp shows and her second portfolio was set up the following year, which landed her three advertisements from Electrolux, Emami Talc and Fair and Lovely. The latter, in particular, which was directed by Rakesh Roshan, gave her exposure and brought in several offers for acting in feature films.[10][11]
[edit]Debut & breakthrough (2005-2007)
In 2005, D'Cruz was called for an audition by director Teja, but the project was cancelled.[10] She instead made her feature film debut in the Telugu language romance film Devadasu (2006), directed by Y. V. S. Chowdhary. She underwent acting classes with Aruna Bhikshu, before starting to work on the film. She recalls that during filming she felt "pressured [...] almost cried and didn't want to go further", but went ahead after her mother encouraged her, giving her "the lecture of a lifetime [...] at 3 am."[12] Upon release, critics were in praise of Ileana, particularly referring to her physique and looks; Jeevi of Idlebrain wrote that Ileana "makes a cool debut. She is good at histrionics and has a fabulous body any woman would love to possess. She has great legs and nice physique",[13] while a review from Indiaglitz noted that she "has chiseled features and a figure to die-for."[14] Devadasu, which also marked its lead actor Ram's acting debut, became the year's first major commercial success, eventually grossing around 14 crores,[15] whilst earning Ileana the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debutant.[16] She next appeared opposite Mahesh Babu in the gangster film Pokiri in which she portrayed an aerobics teacher, who is harassed by a corrupt police officer.[17] The film was a huge financial success, emerging as the highest-grossing Telugu film at the time.[18][19][20]
She made her Tamil-language film debut in Kedi (2006). Although the film did not do so well at the box-office,[20] D'Cruz remained too busy to accept all the film roles offered to her.[21][22] Her Telugu film Khatarnak (2006) in which she acted opposite Ravi Teja did not do as well as expected, which has been attributed to her glamorous appearance not going down well with the audience.[20] She subsequently experienced a setback in her career as her following releases Rakhi (2006) and Munna (2007) opposite NTR Jr. and Prabhas respectively proved critically and financially successful.[20][23]
