+'''Sowcar Janaki (b. 1922)'''
+
+
+Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Hindi actress,
+originally Shankaramanchi Janaki. Born in the
+24 Parganas Dist., Bengal. Acted in several
+radio plays when a child. Married aged 15;
+separated soon after and sought a career in
+films as a single parent. Discovered by L.V.
+Prasad, whom she considers her mentor, and
+made her début in Shavukaru. Although the
+film wasn’t a hit, she appended its title to her
+name ever since. Made her Tamil début at
+Modern Theatres, in the Bharatidasan
+scripted Valayapathi. Often paired in 50s
+Tamil films with M.R. Radha (e.g. Nalla Idathu
+Sambandham). Also acted in Tamil plays, e.g.
+by K. Balachander. Produced and acted in
+Balachander’s melodrama Kaviya Thalaivi,
+followed by Krishnan-Panju’s Ranga
+Rattinam. Her sister, Krishnakumari, was also a
+noted Tamil, Kannada and Telugu star, and
+granddaughter Vaishnavi joined films in the late
+80s.
