Career
Her debut, Rishab Shetty’s Kannada romantic comedy Kirik Party (2016), was the year’s highest-grossing Kannada film and won her the SIIMA Award for Best Debut Actress. Her first Telugu film, Chalo (2018), drew mixed reviews, but Firstpost called hers a “terrific debut”. Parasuram’s Geetha Govindam (2018), opposite Vijay Deverakonda, was her breakthrough and won her the Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress – Telugu. She ended the year with Devadas, and Dear Comrade (2019) brought a SIIMA Best Actress (Critics) award.
In 2020 she starred opposite Mahesh Babu in Sarileru Neekevvaru, a top-grossing Telugu film, and with Nithiin in Venky Kudumula’s Bheeshma, a commercial success. As Srivalli in Sukumar’s Pushpa: The Rise (2021) she reached a national audience. In 2022 she starred in Aadavaallu Meeku Johaarlu and took her first supporting role in Hanu Raghavapudi’s Sita Ramam, which brought her first Filmfare nomination for Best Supporting Actress – Telugu.
She moved into Hindi cinema with Goodbye (2022) and Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal (2023). She returned as Srivalli in Pushpa 2: The Rule (2024), which won her the SIIMA Award for Best Actress – Telugu. In 2025 she played Maharani Yesubai in the Hindi historical film Chhaava and appeared in Sekhar Kammula’s bilingual Kuberaa.
