Archana Jose Kavi is an Indian actress, YouTuber and a television host.[1] She made her acting debut in film Neelathaamara (2009) scripted by M. T. Vasudevan Nair and directed by Lal Jose.[2][3]

Early life

Archana was born in New Delhi to Jose Kaviyil, a senior journalist, and Rosamma. Jose Kaviyil's family is from Kudiyanmala in Kannur district, Kerala.[4] She has an elder brother named Ashish Kavi.Шаблон:Citation needed She was raised in Delhi and studied at St. Xavier's School, Delhi.[4] In 2006, Archana moved to Ramapuram in Kerala for a Bachelor of Business Administration course at the Mar Augusthinose College.[4] She stated that she came from a "typical Malayali middle-class family and acting was never considered a profession by us".[5] She said that she wanted to be a journalist initially since her father was one and later wanted to be an RJ but that people discouraged her.[6]

Archana applied for an internship at the television channel Yes Indiavision and assisted in the production of certain programmes. After a year, she anchored the show Bloody Love on the same channel,[7] while she was spotted by director Lal Jose, who offered her the lead female role in his film in March 2009.[4][5][8]

Career

She made her cinematic debut in 2009 with the highly successful Neelathaamara, portraying the role of Kunjimalu, a maid in an old Nair Tharavadu (ancestral home) who falls for the young master of the house.[8] Director Lal Jose said that "Archana has an in-born talent".[4] Her role won critical accolades. In her next venture titled Mummy & Me, which narrated the tale of the tumultuous relationship between a modern-day teenager and her mother, she played the lead role of a teenager named Jewel.[9] Archana stated the character Jewel was "so very like the real me".[9] But her following release Best of Luck where she reunited with her Neelathamara co-stars Kailash and Rima Kallingal, failed to make an impact at the box office. She made her Tamil debut in the period film Aravaan[10] in which she played a tribal character named Chimby.[6]

In 2013 she also made her Telugu debut in Backbench Student. Archana stated that she played "a college girl caught in a sweet love tale" in the film.[11] She acted as the lead in Abhiyum Njanum, in which she played a modern girl from Mumbai, who comes to Kerala in search of her fiancé.[12] In Honey Bee she played a naïve Anglo-Indian girl Sara.[13] She played a supporting role as the hero Karthik's best friend in Pattam Pole.[14] Her next films Bangles in which she played a junior artiste,[15] and Nadodimannan in which she played a doctor,[16] both released on the same day.[17]

She has signed her second Tamil film Gnana Kirukkan.[18] She is shooting for Day-Night opposite Maqbool Salmaan.[19] She has acted as a Muslim girl in the film Mazhavillinattam Vare, which is Kaithapram's directorial debut.[6] She will also be seen in Nemam Pushparaj's upcoming film Kukkiliyar, in which she plays Manoj K Jayan's daughter who plays a 75-year-old.[20] Archana also shot for a Hindi film Saroja, an offbeat film directed by Anjali Shukla, playing the role of a commercial sex worker.[21][22]

She anchored Sundari Neeyum Sundaran Njaanum, a reality show for television actors on Asianet.[7] She maintains a Twitter account. In 2010 she was only one of two Malayalam actresses maintaining an active Twitter account.[23] In 2021, she moved to direction with a web series titled Pandaraparambil House at 801.[24]

Archana also owns a boutique named 'Chaaya' in Kochi, Kerala.[25]
