As we bid adieu to 2015, its time to look back at the year that was, at the events that made headlines in Tamil Nadu, and the women who were in the news this year - whether S Preethi, the driver of Chennais first metro rail train at the inauguration, or CM Dr J Jayalalithaa, who was acquitted of all corruption charges by the Karnataka High Court in a landmark judgement. The gorgeous Amy Jackson is our covergirl this month. She’s come a long way, from modelling in England to doing films with some of Kollywoods biggest stars. Also meet filmmaker scriptwriter and graphic novelist Nandhini JS, best known for her film Thiru Thiru Thuru Thuru. This year, she makes a mark with Tamil Nadus first graphic novel, Sivappu Kal Mukkuthi. She discusses women in the south Indian film industry and her future projects. Karishma Rajaratnam, co-founder of The Pound, finds homes for abandoned and stray animals through social media. She also co-runs Hotel for Dogs, providing shelter for pets while their owners travel. The young and talented jewellery designer-entrepreneur Akshita Garg shares her trade secrets in On My Own. And in Man We Love, hotshot actor Vijay Sethupathy talks about his latest release Nanum Rowdy Daan, and his dream of directing a movie in the future.
