Will Bhagyashri End Her Debut Curse With Malayalam Cinema?

Bhagyashri Borse has finally tasted success with Akhil’s Lenin after a string of films that failed to give her the expected commercial breakthrough. Now, riding high on the success, she has landed another exciting opportunity as she steps into Malayalam cinema with a big budget film.

Bhagyashri has been officially announced as part of Operation Ganga, which stars Malayalam superstar Mohanlal in the lead. Directed by Vishnu Mohan, the film also features Arjun Rampal and has already created curiosity with its posters and impressive scale.

More importantly, Operation Ganga marks Bhagyashri’s entry into Malayalam cinema. Entering a new industry is always challenging, but getting an opportunity to share the screen with a star like Mohanlal gives her a strong platform to establish herself among Malayalam audiences.

Her Hindi debut came with Chandu Champion. Though the film received critical acclaim, positive reviews and multiple awards, it failed commercially at the box office. She later made her Telugu debut with Mr Bachchan, followed by films Kaantha in Tamil, but none of them gave her the kind of success she was looking for.

This makes her Malayalam debut particularly interesting. Her journey across Hindi, Telugu and Tamil has not been a smooth one, with commercial success continuing to remain a challenge. Lenin has finally given her the much needed breakthrough, and now Operation Ganga could take things to another level.

Everything will ultimately depend on the role she gets in Operation Ganga. If she is limited to a routine heroine role, the impact may be limited. But if she gets a strong and performance oriented character, this film could become a major turning point in her career.

Interestingly, Bhagyashri’s journey in every industry she has entered so far has come with its own share of struggles before finding success. Now, the big question is whether Operation Ganga can finally break this so called debut curse and give her a strong start in Malayalam cinema.
