He’s not just a fresh face tossed into the drama. Prajin’s got a career that stretches back through the world of Tamil and Malayalam serials and movies. He’s built a reputation for being versatile, steady, and, honestly, not one to cause a fuss. Bigg Boss, known for shaking things up, probably thought they needed a little of that Prajin-level chill this season.
Prajin Padmanabhan Career
Prajin didn’t just pop out of nowhere. The guy actually started his career as a VJ with Sun TV, yep, that’s anchoring, hosting, and basically wrangling music videos before jumping into the acting pool. His acting journey kicked off with movies like Dishyum and Saa Boo Thiri, with some main roles thrown in, especially in bilingual films like Manal Nagaram, set in the UAE. But to be real, most folks around here remember Prajin for his TV serial performances.
Serials like Penn, Anjali, Kadhalikka Neramillai, and of course, Chinna Thambi were prime spots where Prajin nailed the hero vibe. And he wasn’t shy about reality shows either, showing up on Jodi Number One and dancing his way through some serious competition. Even in recent years, he’s managed to keep busy with serials like Anbudan Kushi and Vaidhegi Kaathirundhaal. So yeah, he’s bounced around, picking up roles in movies and serials, balancing both, with that reliable, likeable energy.
Prajin Padmanabhan Age
If you’re thinking he looks a little more mature than some of the fresh faces on Bigg Boss good eye. Prajin Padmanabhan’s age as of October 2025 is 42, born on September 6, 1983, in Kozhikode, Kerala. The fact he’s still rocking lead roles, reality shows, and now Bigg Boss in his 40s? That takes some stamina (and probably a lot of coffee, but who’s judging?).
Not only is he seasoned when it comes to screen time, he’s got the experience behind the scenes too he’s married, dad to twin girls, and just seems to have navigated the ups and downs of TV stardom with a lot of steady confidence.
