Unless you have been living like a hermit, without your phone, then missing out on Priya Prakash Warrier and her now witty wink would have been impossible. Ever since the Malayalam actress’ expressive wink exchange from her song Manikya Malaraya Poovi from the upcoming film Oru Adaar Love took over Valentine’s Week, she’s been everywhere in the world of internet. So much so, that the young actress awaiting her debut has amassed around 4.5 million followers on Instagram, on last check. That’s more than facebook founder and now the owner of Instagram Mark Zuckerberg, despite the fact that he joined the social media app way back in 2010.

While Priya currently has 4.5 million followers, Zuckerberg has merely 4 million followers on the platform. With just 92 posts, the young actor has gained quite a stardom in such small time span. However, the tech prodigy is not just the only celebrity whom she has ‘killed’ with her wink. National Award winner and actor Malayalam Superstar Mohanlal, who has 714k followers on Instagram, has also been left far behind. And the hunt list does not end there, she has demolished the fame of many others on Instagram like: Dulquer Salmaan 1.9 million, Trisha Krishnan just 1.5 million, Nazriya 1.1 million, Prithviraj 465k and Nivin Pauly just 38k followers.

It would be interesting to see what this stardom gives to the newcomer and how it helps her to build a successful career in the film industry. She has now fans both in India and abroad, with possibilities of making it to Bollywood, Kollywood and Mollywood( for obvious reasons).  Meanwhile, the song Manikya Malaraya Poovi has garnered over 37 million views on YouTube.
