Sanjana, who is known as an actress, is now ready to take a big risk as a director. Instead of staying in front of the camera, she is now ready to call the shots with “Action” and “Cut.” Having learned from a star director, this young actress is now set to work with the same hero for her directorial debut. Sanjana Krishna Murthy, known for her acting, believes that directing movies is just as important as acting and is confident that she can create exceptional films. She has learned from Mani Ratnam and is now ready to take the megaphone into her hands.

In 2024, she starred in a small but critically acclaimed sports drama, Labber Pandu. Directed by Tamilrajan Pachimuthu, the movie featured Harish Kalyan as the hero, and Sanjana made a successful impact in the female lead role. The Chennai beauty, who holds a degree in visual communication, started as a social media influencer, which eventually led to her opportunities in films. She also acted in the mystery crime thriller Vandandi: The Fable of Villainy, starring SJ Suryah. Her success in Vandandi and Labber Pandu helped her gain significant fame.

While working as a heroine, Sanjana also trained under Kollywood's star director Mani Ratnam. She learned the art of direction and now, with this experience, is ready to make her directorial debut. There are reports that she is planning to announce her upcoming project soon, with young actor Kevin as the hero. At a young age, Sanjana is taking on the responsibility of directing, and it remains to be seen if she will become the next "Lady Mani Ratnam" in the industry.
