Maneesha KS

Maneesha KS was already familiar to Malayalam television viewers through comedy and serial acting before Bigg Boss. Her best-known role is Vasavadatha in Thatteem Mutteem, a character that became closely associated with her television identity.

She has also appeared in Pookkalam Varavayi, while music has remained an equally important part of her career. Maneesha has performed as a singer on stage for many years and has shared stages with established musicians, including S. P. Balasubrahmanyam.

In March 2023, she entered Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 5 as one of the original contestants. The programme placed a performer known through scripted comedy and live music into a fully unscripted environment.

After her eviction, Maneesha returned to television work, including Thatteem Mutteem. Her Bigg Boss appearance now sits alongside acting and singing as one of the better-known parts of her public career.
