The title as âJewel in the Crown, was given to India by the British as they could find some preciousness in this country. In fact they found that India was source of several precious stones like Sapphires, rubies, diamonds, emeralds and many more expensive spices.

She continued to model for the next three years and made her first film appearance in 1997's Iruvar, directed by Mani Ratnam.
