Career
Sri Divya began her career when she was three years old. She has also appeared in Telugu TV serials.
She made her acting debut in Ravi Babu's 2010 Telugu romance film Manasara, but the film was a flop. Then she appeared in the box office success Bus Stop (2012), directed by Maruthi and co-starring Prince. Mallela Theeram Lo Sirimalle Puvvu followed, in which she played a lonely wife who falls in love with a writer. "She looks very charming; the cotton saris bring out the grace in her," The Hindu wrote of her performance. According to Idlebrain.com, "Sri Divya personifies the idealistic and self-reliant woman. She did an excellent job and deserves praise ".
Ponram directed her Tamil debut, Varuthapadatha Valibar Sangam, in which she starred alongside Siva Karthikeyan. Sri Divya's performance received overwhelmingly positive feedback from critics. According to Baradwaj Rangan, "The actress is excellent. She understands the language, knows how to work a reaction shot, and appears to belong in this environment. It will be fascinating to see what Tamil cinema thinks of her ". "But the real surprise is debutant Sri Divya, who is expressive and can lip-sync very well, which isn't the case with most of our heroines today," wrote the Times of India. "As Latha, debutant Sridivya emotes well, infusing the character with innocence, charm, and naughtiness," wrote the New Indian Express.
She appeared in two Tamil films in 2014: Suseenthiran's Jeeva and Vellaikaara Durai.
