This resulted in her acting debut in a Tamil film as the female lead in Madrasapattinam opposite Arya. Released on 9 July 2010, the film was a critical as well as commercial success, with Jackson gaining praise for her performance. Later, she was signed by Gautham Menon to play a Malayali Christian in Ek Deewana Tha, his Hindi remake of Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa.

Quotes
"I was completely shocked to win and so happy. I really thought I had not made the final five. But then I went on to take the title. I made lots of friends during the competition and may now be going to live in Texas for a year to promote the contest."
Career
Jackson's career began in the UK through modeling agency Boss Model Management. The commercial model has now made her mark in India not only modeling but also in the South-Indian Chennai based Kollywood film industry.
