​Happy Birthday Kaniha: Five times when the actor gave us life lessons

A successful actress, a doting mother, a loving wife, a huge fitness enthusiast, actress Kaniha has different roles to play in life, but the talented diva manages all of it like a boss. From becoming successful in her career after getting married and becoming a mother to fighting tough times with optimism, Kaniha is a huge inspiration to all alive. As the gorgeous talent is celebrating her birthday, here’s taking a look at five times when Kaniha gave us life lessons.

​Impossible is just an option

Women often tend to believe that marriage is the end to their career, social life and many more, but Kaniha doesn’t believe in any of them. Kaniha truly believes that the impossible is just an option. The stunning actress has given hit movies like ‘Pazhassi Raja’ and ‘Bhagyadevatha’ after tying the knot. The actress was confident about her acting chops and believed in what she was about to do. Hariharan’s directorial ‘Pazhassi Raja’ is one of the biggest movies in Mollywood and also in Kaniha’s career. She essayed Kaitheri Maakam, the wife of Pazhassi Raja, and gave a splendid performance. Sathyan Athikkad’s ‘Bhagyadevatha’ was also a hit.

​Self-love is important

If you think Kaniha is hitting the gym or spending an hour or two for the workout is just for the sake of her career, the answer is ‘No’. Earlier while speaking to us, Kaniha had shared that the workout in gym or at home just means some time for herself. “We women are constantly working for others, whether it’s for our parents, in-laws, kids, or partner, we are always busy doing something for them. In the midst of all these hassles, we forget about ourselves. So for me spending an hour in the gym, means flaunting myself and it's just a small step towards fitness,” the actress said. Body and mind is our tool and caring it constitutes self-love.

​Embracing ourselves is the key

From beauty products to beauty filters, most of us struggle to represent a flawless version of ourselves before the world. But Kaniha cannot fall for that. The intelligent diva believes that embracing ourselves is important. As any other normal woman, Kaniha got stretch marks after giving birth to her son. But she wasn’t ready to hide them or thought they were a flaw. And hence, she walked the ramp of a popular fashion week sporting the stretch marks. “I never felt that stretch marks are a flaw, they have a story to tell. They are the beautiful drawings, a gift of motherhood. Every time when my son puts his tiny fingers on my tummy, I feel proud,” she said to us, while sharing her views on body positivity.

​Family is her world

Kaniha believes in the beauty of bonds and relationships. Family is everything to her. The actress shares a deep bond with her husband and their son, and often shares pictures of them for her fans. Kaniha is madly in love with her husband Shyam Radhakrishnan and so is he. The duo often dolls out couple goals and they are head over heels in love. And they are proud parents of their little son Sai.

​Enjoying simple things in life

One could only find happiness when he/she starts enjoying lighter things in life. During the lockdown, when many others were finding the things that one could not do till then, Kaniha found happiness in the things she had. She was along with her family and her kid. From enjoying her son’s cooking experiments to working out, thinking positively, and wearing lovely outfits to drive the lockdown blues, Kaniha stayed optimistic and hopeful. The actress just taught us life is so simple and enjoying it is important.
