She was still a student, when she acted in the film.[1] Her third film Maithanam (2011) got positive reviews from both the critics and the audience.[7] She played a village girl, who "values culture and tradition" in the film.[7] In her next venture, Kandathum Kanathathum by director Seelan, she played a "city-bred college girl".[7] She made her Malayalam debut with Cinema Company (2012) and was the lead actress in Sajeevan Anthikkad's Prabhuvinte Makkal (2012).[1] In the 2014 Tamil thriller Panduvam she played a psychiatrist, a modern character as opposed to her earlier roles in Tamil films.[8][9]
