Does Jayanthi smoke?: Not Known.Does Jayanthi drink alcohol?: Not Known.Jayanthis parents got separated after a few years of their marriage, and her mother moved to Madras with her children.Her mother wanted Jayanthi to become a classical dancer.She started her career as a supporting actress when she was just a teen. At that time she was very chubby and was not good at dancing. So she was not treated very well on the sets.Later, she joined a dance school and learned different forms of Indian classical dance.Jayanthi was practising dance for her movie scene when Kannada director Y. R. Swam saw her, and offered her a Kannada movie Jenu Goodu. However, she had worked in Tamil and Malayalam films before, but Jenu Godu proved to be the film which established her as an actress.She was the first Kannada actress to wear a nighty, swimwear and a skirt in any Kannada film. The name of the film was Miss Leelavathi and was the boldest and very much ahead of its time.Jayanthi even won the Presidents award for Miss Leelavathi, which was presented to her by Indira Gandhi (then IB Minister).Her husband, the famous actor and director Peketi Sivaram, was the most significant support for her.
