Menaka’s partner is renowned producer Suresh Kumar. Menaka is not active in the film industry now. The actor has acted in over a hundred films. Apart from Malayalam, he has acted in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Hindi films. The actress was one of the highest paid actresses in South India when she retired from acting after her marriage.
Maneka returns to acting almost 19 years later with the series Kaliveet. Recently, Maneka revealed that she is not married to actor Shankar. It was only after I stopped acting that I knew the fans loved our pair so much. There was a time when everyone cursed Suresh Ettan. I used to get a lot of letters that day. Suresh and Shankar are very close friends. The two were reading the letters together at home. In most of the letters, it is said that Sureshetta should be withdrawn and that it is Shankara who should tie Maneka. So lucky to have a pair.
We are both very close friends. Shankar is a very comfortable person. Menaka said. Famous actress Keerthi Suresh is the daughter of Menaka and Suresh Kumar. Today, National Award winner Keerthi is one of the leading actresses in South India.
In an interview, Maneka says that she made a big mistake with Keerthi as a mother. Menaka burst into tears after seeing the violin performance of a girl named Neeraja. When I came home from Chennai, I could not mentally adapt to this place. There was no interest in anything coming out. Keerthi used to play the violin very beautifully at this time. She would always call me to see her performance. But I did not go anywhere because of this problem. I ‘m not sure what I’ m talking about. But then I felt guilty. I did not fulfill my duty as a mother. I have not told Keerthi any of this. Says Menaka.
