Netizens are now impressed with actress Alba Flores who mastered her act in Netflix’s ‘Money Heist’ as character Nairobi. 

From donning the role of a thief in the series, actress Alba also has another character to her credit that seems to have caught the fancy of Indian fans. Apart from the Spanish show La Casa de Papel (Money Heist in English), Alba has also played a Telugu character in a movie.

She plays a Telugu speaking character in a Spanish movie titled ‘Vicente Ferrer’ -- largely based on the life and events of a Jesuit missionary. The man, originally from Spain in the film, visits the state of Andhra Pradesh in India and decides to live there in order to improve the lives of the people.

The ‘Money Heist’ actress Alba played the role of Shamira in the movie. A clip of her character has been doing rounds on the internet. In the short clip, Alba can be seen speaking in Telugu fluently.

In the movie ‘Vicente Ferrer’, Alba hails from the village of Anthapuram in Andhra Pradesh. She wears traditional clothes, sports a bindi and has her hair braided.

Sharing the clip one fan wrote on a fanpage of ‘Money Heist’: “Can y’all believe that she (Alba Flores) played such heavy roles right in the start of her career… I mean, if THAT was the start, I can’t imagine what she’ll do in the future, she’s already above the skies right now, and she achieved ALL of this fame and love with side roles.”

Soon after, many started sharing the clip, praising Alba for her acting.
