Kannada actress Malashree, who is more often seen in khaki since taking on an ‘angry woman’ onscreen persona, is in the midst of a murder mystery in her latest, Night Curfew, which releases on April 12. Only this time, she is not investigating the same. Instead, she is a doctor at a hospital where a series of events unfold that threaten the safety of her fellow healthcare professionals. How she gets them all out of peril and salvages the situation is what Night Curfew is about.
If you are a Malashree fan and are eagerly waiting for Night Curfew to release, here are a few of the Action Queen’s hit films that you can catch up on until then.
Lady Commissioner
Malashree is the title character, Lady Commissioner, the Commissioner of Police who fights against crime and corruption to restore justice. When she then lands a high profile case to ensure Chief Minister Vishwanath's safety, she faces several challenges that pose a threat to her life and career. Will she succeed in her mission?
