Rajisha Vijayan () is a Kozhikode-born, award-winning actress whose journey into cinema began far from the film sets. The daughter of an Army officer, she grew up moving across the country - an experience that taught her to observe people, places, and emotions with rare sensitivity, something she now brings effortlessly to her craft. Her travels also gave her fluency in multiple languages including Hindi, Malayalam, Tamil, and English.
From an early age, Rajisha felt most at home on stage. She carried a natural ease and confidence that made every performance feel alive. That comfort with expression, paired with an intuitive ability to connect with audiences, laid the foundation for her life in front of the camera.
After graduating in Mass Communication and Journalism from Amity University, Rajisha began her career as a television host before making her film debut with Anuraga Karikkin Vellam. Her first performance captured hearts and earned her the Kerala State Film Award for Best Actress—an announcement of a fresh, instinctive talent. But it was her portrayal in the titular role of June that brought her both critical acclaim and commercial success. Since then, Rajisha’s career has been guided by curiosity and courage, consistently choosing roles that challenge, surprise, and defy expectation.
Her stellar portfolio includes memorable performances in Mari Selvaraj’s () Karnan, T.J. Gnanavel’s Jai Bhim, and P.S. Mithran’s () Sardar. Rajisha’s other notable works include Madhura Manohara Moham, Malayankunju, and most recently Kovarty, which premiered at MAMI to critical acclaim. Her upcoming release is Mari Selvaraj’s Bison, slated to hit theatres on October 17.
