==Career==

She made her debut in the [[Telugu language|Telugu]] film ''Egire Paavurama'' (1996), directed by [[S. V. Krishna Reddy]]. Laila began to receive offers from prominent directors to feature in Tamil films and turned down films such as ''[[Dharma Chakkaram]]'' and ''[[Kadhal Palli]]'' by [[K. S. Ravikumar]] and [[Pavithran (Tamil film director)|Pavithran]] respectively. She subsequently signed on to appear in the lead role in ''[[V. I. P. (1997 film)|VIP]]'' after [[Pooja Kumar]] had walked out of the project. However, Laila was left unimpressed when the producer asked her to consider changing her stage name to Pooja, as the invitations for the film had already been printed, and furthermore, she revealed that she was unaware of [[Rambha (actress)|Rambha]] also being a heroine in the film. Laila subsequently dropped out of the project, wanting to make her Tamil debut in a film where she played the sole heroine.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Minnoviyam Star Tracks|url=http://chandrag.tripod.com/aug98/index.html|access-date=2020-09-11|website=chandrag.tripod.com}}</ref>

The [[Mumbai]]-based Laila then worked with [[Ajith Kumar|Ajith]] in ''[[Dheena]]'' and ''[[Parthen Rasithen]]'' with [[Prashanth (actor)|Prashanth]].

Then came ''[[Dhill]]'' and ''[[Pithamagan]]'' with [[Vikram (actor)|Vikram]]. In between, Laila took a break and went back to Mumbai. However, she returned to Kollywood with a big bang. Her role in the movie ''[[Ullam Ketkumae]]'' won her accolades from the masses. She was one of the successful Tamil actresses for a brief time.

Laila has made a comeback to the Tamil entertainment industry. She first appeared in a ready-made flavored milk commercial (Aachi Badam Milk) post her sabbatical in 2018. She will be appearing as the judge for the dance show DJD Juniors on [[Zee Tamil]] alongside actresses [[Sudha Chandran]] and [[Sneha (actress)|Sneha]].

==Personal life==

She married Mehdi, an [[Iranian peoples|Irani]] businessman, on 6 January 2006. She dated him for eight years before marriage.<ref name="timesnownews"/> According to Laila, they were engaged for four years before marriage. The couple has two sons, aged 9 and 12. She is [[Goan]] but speaks [[Tamil language|Tamil]], [[English language|English]], [[Hindi]], [[Telugu language|Telugu]], [[Malayalam language|Malayalam]] and [[French language|French]] at home and she is a [[Roman Catholic]].
