Introduction
Gautami Tadimalla, a celebrity actor and brand ambassador for Health Education is a leading Indian voluntary health educator. She is Chairperson of Life Again Foundation and is a cancer winner. She was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 35 and had successfully recovered later. This led her to start the Life Again Foundation to pioneer alternative therapies and health sciences education particularly to those who could not afford sophisticated and expensive health care.
Social Work and Contributions to Health Sciences Education
As Founder of Life Again Foundation (LAF), Gautami founded Life Again Foundation (LAF) to help cancer patients. Through LAF, Gautami has used her celebrity status and name recognition to rally thousands of people to workshops that highlight the importance of lifestyle changes, wellness and preventive medical care. The Foundation funded largely by Gautami and well-wishers has conducted hundreds of motivational camps for cancer patients, cancer awareness campaigns, and food drives. She has championed and pioneered Yoga and Alternative Therapy programs. It also periodically conducts health camps to conduct tests that screen for cancer and overall health. LAF also runs 2 Mobile hospitals. On the educational front, LAF also sponsors under-privileged students for higher education. It runs Supplementary Education Centres and Vocational Training Centres. Life Again Foundation provides functional and compassionate support and lobbies for government policies to support disadvantaged people.
Educator
She has lectured at prestigious management programmes. She has advocated holistic education. She has been promoting the importance for wellness as a precursor to productivity. Her work among the academia has focussed on bringing creativity as an integral element for problem solving and decision making.
Career in Films
As an actor, she has acted in 120 plus Indian language movies – Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, Kannada, Telegu, designed costumes, produced and directed film productions. She has won multiple awards for best actor; best costume designer and she has set a very high standard for best practices in creative arts. She has acted with leading actors such as Shah Rukh Khan and Rajinikanth. In choosing her roles, she has always chosen roles to reflect social messages close to her: women empowerment, education, health and wellness and positive outlook towards life. She has used her life and own resources to champion the cause of health sciences education in every possible opportunity that she has had.
Brand Ambassador
As a brand ambassador, she has supported the face of health sciences education. She has supported and has acted as an embodiment of the Health Sciences education identity through words and action. She has been tasked by policy makers to promote the concepts of education, wellness, productivity and employee wellbeing. She is both a micro and macro influencer with an active social media profile with close to 500,000 followers on Twitter and Instagram. Her communication is crafted carefully to have the maximum impact on the people who need it. In a world where heath care costs are increasingly getting out of the reach of the common person, she has focussed on using all avenues of communication to lift the disadvantaged out of the poverty cycle trap.
