Namitha is the favourite of all shopkeepers to smile BIG

Shopkeepers in Tamil Nadu had better beware of the actors they invite to their stores for openings, sales or any such ribbon cutting event.

These actors, who seem to have everything and everyone in tow — from their mamas to their make-up men , always remember to leave one thing at home — their purses.

Shopkeepers in Chennai complain that the actors who grace their store launches walk off with some of the choicest items, without paying the money.

One of the few actresses who pay for anything she buys is Namitha — she always walks into a store with nothing less than Rs 15,000 in cash and pays for everything she picks up. Naturally Namitha is the favourite of all shopkeepers.
