==Early life==
Philomina entered the film industry with eight years of experience in professional drama, she worked with the drama troupe of [[P. J. Antony|P J Antony]]. She used to say it was her initial experience with an actor like Antony that helped shape her film career.

Her parents were perturbed when she had to travel to [[Chennai]] for the first shoot. It was Moidu Padiyathu who convinced her parents. Her first movie, [http://www.thehindu.com/features/metroplus/kuttikuppayam-1964/article2981627.ece ''Kuttikkupayam'' (1964)], produced by T.E. Vasudevan and directed by M. Krishnan Nair was a big hit. Philomina played the role of [[Prem Nazir]]'s mother, a Muslim character.

==Personal life==

She was born to Devassia and Mariam on 1926 at Mullurkkara in [[Thrissur]]. She had her primary education from Valapad GVHS School. Her father died when she was 12. She used to sing at church choir. When her father died she started singing for dramas to make a living. Later she started acting in dramas and then moved to movies.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://cinidiary.com/people.php?pigsection=Actor&picata=2&no_of_displayed_rows=23&no_of_rows_page=10&sletter= |title=A Complete Online Malayalam Cinema News Portal |publisher=Cinidiary |access-date=2016-12-01}}</ref>
