CHENNAI: Popular Tamil, Malayalam actress Kanaka is missing. Kanaka who had been staying alone in her house at Annamalaipuram was found missing on Saturday morning onwards, says Annamalaipuram police.

She is the daughter of late actress Devika. Kanaka who got married three years back divorced her husband. After her mother died she began to live alone.

There are also reports that her former husband was also missing.

She started her career as the heroine in Karagatakaran (1989), a movie based on the Tamil rural dance form Karagatam, along with Tamil film stars Ramarajan, Goundamani and Senthil. It was a hit, but her later films never matched its success. Kanaka starred in Adisiya Piravi (1991), but Periya Kudumbum and Samundi were commercial failures.

She also starred in few Telugu and Malayalam movies with major stars like Mammootty and Mohanlal. Her Malayalam debut Godfather was an all time hit movie in Kerala, which ran 434 days.
