Please move aside Erra Fazira, Fasha Sandha has become Malaysia movie industry’s screen queen. In less than four years, she has progressed from being one of the new faces to one that draws the crowd to the cinemas.

Fasha Sandha won the Most Popular Actress in the 2006 Anugerah Bintang Popular.

She first ventured into acting in 2002 and played the lead role in Ambri Kailani’s big-screen debut, 'Black Maria'. Even before the film hit the cinemas, she was offered a role in Aziz M. Osman’s 'Bintang Hari', followed by 'Sh3 the Movie'. But it was her acting in Bade Azmi’s 'Berlari Ke Langit' that propelled her to fame. Her portrayal opposite Rosyam Nor in Berlari Ke Langit earned her a nomination for best new actress at the 17th Malaysian Film Festival in 2004.

Bad Publicity
Newcomers who shines always did not had a smooth journey in Malaysia's music industry. Fasha Sandha had to endure a fair share of bad publicity. There were rumours of her being the third wife of a VVIP, she being a difficult actress when on the film set and she being one of the reasons for Erra Fazira and Yusry’s marriage break-up.

Commercial Queen
Fasha is the newly-appointed spokesperson for Garnier (skin care product) of L’Oreal Malaysia. She was also appointed to be the spokesperson for Maybelline to replace Diva Siti Nurhaliza. She also appeared in numerous commercials including McDonalds, Fair & Lovely, Toyota and F&N Sarsi.

Trice rejected Yusof Haslam
"I feel bad because I have to decline three previous movie offers from Datuk Yusof Haslam because of other acting commitments. I have been hoping that one day I will be able to act in his movie. I don’t want to be greedy and sign up for movies back-to-back, and then be unable to give my 100% commitment. That’s not me. Whenever I accept a role, I have to ensure it is good for my profile and career. I prefer to be committed to one drama instead of having too many things on my plate.”

Dreamed role
Given the opportunity, Fasha would like to play a prostitute or a gangster.
