Born on the 26th day of the month of July, this upcoming star was initially named Divya Gopi Kumar. Her father, Gopi Kumar and mother Pushpa, residents of Trivandrum city in Kerala apparently nicknamed their child after goddess of Laxmi as Abhirami.
She completed her schooling from ChristNagarEnglishHigh School. When she was in 8th standard she got her first dib at acting with a Malayalam movie ‘kathapurushan’ by Adoor Gopalakrishnan as a child artiste. Even though the movie was a hit, Abhirami decided to concentrate on her education and quit working. Whiling away in MarIvaniousCollege in Kerala, she took up the job on an anchoring job on television channel Asianet for the show ‘Pepsi Top Ten’. This stint on television helped her later bag a Malyali tele series of 100 episodes ‘Akshaya Patram’ by director Sreekumaran Thampy. But success wasn’t knocking on her doors just then as she failed to match up to her senior successful counterpart, Manju Warrior.
Not one to be marred by her failures, Abhirami turned her wheels towards Tamil film industry, her mother tongue. In fact, it was the costume designer of her one of Malayalam films, ‘Millennium stars’ who recommended her to director Manoj Kumar.
