Yes, Chellamma. How did you miss it all this while? 😆 😉
Kamal is Chithappa for both Suhasini and Anu Hassan. Suhasini's Dad is Charu Hassan and Anu's Dad is Chandra Hassan. Kamal and Suhasini (and family) had a rift in their Paasamulla relationship a long time ago, when Kamal decided to part ways with Vani Ganapathy (Kamal's first wife) because Suhasini was very close to Vani.
Anyway, here's some info on Anu Hassan:
She's very talented - she has her double Masters from the renowned BITS Univ in Pilani, India. Unlike Suhasini, Anu's very close to her Chithappa Kamal.
She has been a line producer in some of Kamal's own productions. He has relied on her work heavily when he produced Nala Damayanthi and Mumbai Express. She has her own business too. I think she's not married yet, but don't know for sure.
I know some of you here have Srilankan roots, so it will be a surprise for you to know that she lent her voice for the famous SriLankan character in Nala Damayanthi. I thought she sounded very authentic, although she was a Madras girl.
Personally, after I saw her "Koffee" videos from Meli's links, I cannot stop myself from comparing her hosting from Gauthami's. Anu's interviews are very down to earth and Gauthami's seem more formal, at this point.
