Priya Prakash Varrier—who rose to fame as the “wink girl” from the Malayalam film Oru Adaar Love—recently reappeared in Param Sundari, but not in a way fans expected.
She was spotted as an uncredited background extra in the rom-com Param Sundari, starring Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor.
In a fleeting shot, she’s seen in a red-and-white saree walking silently behind Sidharth, prompting online viewers to question her choice and prominence in the scene.

The clip quickly went viral on platforms like Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and Reddit, sparking a wave of astonishment over her minor role despite her established fame. Many fans voiced their disappointment, with comments like “She deserves better. From viral sensation to background?” and even suggesting she should have replaced Janhvi Kapoor.
Her cameo also reignited discussions about the film’s cultural portrayal—especially since Priya, a Malayali, was cast as an extra while stemming criticisms over the authenticity of Janhvi’s performance as a half-Malayali character.
