Priya Varrier becomes an Internet Celebrity overnight

New Delhi: Over this weekend, actress Priya Varrier became an Indian sensation for her role in the Malayalam film ‘Oru Adaar Love’.

Not as a powerful actor in the lead role, not as a singing sensation belting out a heartwarming melody, and certainly not as the titillating performer of an item number. No, Priya Prakash Varrier just captured pretty much the entire country with a smile and a wink.

Overnight, Varrier has become an Internet sensation, with the 30-second clip garnering her thousands of new followers across Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

She’s become a meme too, and sometimes a pretty hilarious one at that.
