Body art is a very popular trend in Tollywood and Bollywood. Of late, the tattoo culture is slowly becoming a fashion among the Tollywood actresses. A few Telugu actors like Shruti Hassan, Nayantara, Namita, Samantha, Charmy and Naga Chaitanya have got inked on their bodies. Some other heroes have had temporary tattoos for their movies.

Akhil Akkineni has got inked on his body now. During the launch ceremony of Chennai Shopping Mall, he was spotted with a tattoo on his right hand.

It is heard that he has been inked for his next film, which is being directed by Vikram Kumar. However, it is yet to be known whether it is for film or his personal tattoo.

Many actresses got tattooed but beautiful Chennai lady Trisha’s tattoos have always been interesting owing to the places she chose to be inked. Now, she hit headlines again for her 3rdofficial tattoo.

With this new tattoo Trisha paid tribute to films. It was inked by Trisha on her left shoulder. She gleefully tweeted to inform her fans about this, “Wear evrythn in ur heart on urskin”so here goes tattoo no 3 #lovemyjob #moviesareforever #thanksforalwayshavingmyback (pun intended).”

It may be noted that the first tattoo to get on the body of Trisha was the widely popular Nemo fish, which was inked on the upper part of her left breast. It gives much guilty pressure to her fans. Next, she inked Taurus tattoo on her left arm.

Tollywood actor Nani is currently acting in a film directed by Hanu Raghavapudi of Andala Rakshasi fame in which Nani will be seen as a big fan of Nandamuri Balakrishna. For that role Nani keeps Jai Balayya Tattoo on his hand. 14 Reels Entertainment banner is producing the movie.

Have a look at the picture you can see the Jai Balayya tattoo on Nani’s hand. This picture had taken when Nani spotted at the premiere show of Size Zero.

The shooting of the film is currently in progress. Meanwhile, NBK is busy with the shooting of his forthcoming film Dictator, which is his 99th movie. Anjali and Sonal Chauhan are the heroines opposite NBK in the film and directed by Sriwaas of Lakshyam fame.

Nani’s last released movie Bhale Bhale Magadivoi turned as a super hit movie and once again Nani is hoping one more hit with his new film.

Hot heroine Trisha Krishnan is now in this position. It is known that this beauty has been selected for Balakrishna’s upcoming venture. Apart from this flick, this lady has no other big flick in hand. It is a noted fact that Trisha Krishnan is the one who introduced the tattoo culture in South India.

The tattoo on her body turned out to be a hit long time back. Later on, few more actresses followed this trend. The list is too big and in recent, Tamanna came up with a tattoo on her body for a song in “Alludu Seenu”. This trend got immense success but this actress was left with no offers in hand.

Hope Balakrishna comes to the rescue of Trisha Krishnan. There is a buzz in the media that Trisha has approached Pawan Kalyan for a role in “Gabbar Singh 2”. If this turns true, there are chances for this beauty to soar high in South India once again!

Actress Kaniha has a lot to be happy about these days with her movie How Old Are You starring Manju Warrier getting a very warm reception from the fans and her pivotal role in the flick being appreciated in the process. After all the success of the movie is the success of the actors in it too.

Soon before the movie’s release this weekend, the young actress decided to make another little dream of hers come true and that is to get herself inked with a tattoo!

Yes, the charming beauty after a long while of thinking about it and wanting to do it, finally made the leap a few days back and got a tattoo on her right arm… and this is what she had to say about it to her fans through Facebook:

“Finally decided to break the dilemma I’ve had for a very long time and I got inked today…I wanted an image that’ll mean something to me all my life…here I am with my brand new tattoo…##feeling so happppyyy##”

Well, looking good Kaniha and kudos on being true to yourself and expressing yourself freely in life and in your art.

Apart from Kaniha, the other actress of note to have a tattoo in Mollywood (that we know of at least) is the ever so courageous and gorgeous Mamtha Mohandas. So it looks like Kaniha is in good company and that the list might be growing…
