Meet actress who did all flop films, worked with 5 superstars, soon to make her Bollywood debut with…, mother of 2 children, Her name is...
In the film industry, numerous actresses have delivered hit films and shared the screen with top stars, yet only a few manage to leave a lasting impact. While some faced a string of flops, they still captured the audience's attention through their beauty, talent, and unique charm, eventually earning popularity despite setbacks. Today, we are going to talk about one such actress who significantly gave flops but yet managed to seek the attention of cinema-lovers with her talent.
Here, we are talking about a Telugu actress who made her debut in 2021 with the romantic drama Pelli Sandadi , which did not receive much appreciation. Despite receiving negative reviews, she showcased her talent and led to further opportunities. In 2022, she starred in the Kannada romantic comedy By Two Love , where her performance was praised, although her Kannada pronunciation received huge backlash from the audience.
Sreeleela's Interest In Dancing and…
The actress was born on July 14, 2001, in United States and was raised in Bangalore, India. From a young age, she showed interest in dance and trained in Bharatanatyam, which helped shape her expressive abilities. While growing up, she balanced her passion for the arts with academics. Despite entering the film industry at a young age, Sreeleela pursued her studies seriously and enrolled in medical school and and after that, she got her MBBS degree from Bangalore Medical College. Sreeleela's Career In Telugu Cinema
In the same year, she featured with Telugu superstar Ravi Teja in action-thriller flick Dhamaka . During its promotional tour, she adopted Guru and Shobhitha, who are two differently abled children. According to reports by Deccan Chronicle, she struck an instant connection with children during a visit to an orphanage in 2022 and vowed to help them live a better existence. This gesture of Sreeleela received immense praise and love, but it didn't helped her movie. After its initial release the film turned out to be biggest box-office disaster.
However, she bounced back with movie Bhagavanth Kesari, where her performance as Nandamuri Balakrishna's daughter was praised but film's performance remained the same at box office. However, for Bhagavanth Kesari , Sreeleela received the nomination for Best Supporting Actress at South Filmfare Awards. Later, she starred in Mahesh Babu starrer Guntur Kaaram helmed by Trivikram which also remained dud on box-office, but yet again Sreeleela received love and recognition for her charming looks and dancing skills. One Item Song Changed The Fate Of Sreeleela
Sreeleela got the opportunity to feature in an item song from 2024's humongous blockbuster Pushpa 2: The Rule. The song named Kissik featured Sreeleela and Allu Arjun in their groovy avatar, which completely broke all the records after its release. The song became huge hit just like the first part's peppy track Oo Antava, which changed course for Sreeleela as she got the offer from other industries. Sreeleela's Big Break Into…
The actress is all set to feature with Kartik Aaryan, which will mark her debut in Bollywood. The film, tentatively titled Tu Meri Zindagi Hai helmed by Anurag Basu, is said to be based on backdrop of the iconic Aashiqui franchise, however, the makers have not confirmed this till date. The upcoming romantic-musical is all set for its grand release on the occasion of Deepawali on October 17, 2025. Apart from this, she is all set to feature with Power Star Pawan Kalyan in Ustad Bhagat Singh and Ravi Teja's Mass Jathara.

Abhishek Banerjee, Rana Daggubati react to row over Kamal Haasan's Kannada comment: ‘Same about Marathi-Bihari…'
Actor Kamal Haasan finds himself in the midst of a language row ahead of the release of his film Thug Life. The Mani Ratnam-directed film has been barred from release in Karnataka, with Kamal doubling down and not apologising for a statement he made on Kannada being born out of Tamil. Recently, the Karnataka HC slammed his statement and called him out for not apologising. In an interview with India Today, Rana Daggubati and Abhishek Banerjee, however, said this when asked about it. (Also Read: 'I thank the people of Tamil Nadu for supporting me': Kamal Haasan in 1st press meet after Kannada language row) When asked to comment on Kamal's language row, Rana questioned why actors are being looked up to for the way society lives instead of scholars or politicians. He said, 'Now, social media has become a place to make an opinion. Earlier, you didn't have that. Anything gets touchy and political quite quickly. If the media and the news, and people become smarter (and understand) that actors are not the ones to advocate for the way society lives - it will be a better place. I think you should look at scholars, politicians and learned men and women to lead a way into society.' His Rana Naidu co-star Abhishek also agreed with Rana and compared it to the Marathi-Bihari conflict in Maharashtra and said, 'When I came to Bombay many years back, I heard the same thing about the Marathi-Bihari and Kannada-Tamil conflict, which has been going on. I feel it's completely worthless and useless. People who don't have anything better to do, will just try and get attention while doing this.' He also stated that language is great when used to educate people and cultivate culture, rather than to cause divide. Thug Life will be released across the country on 5 June except for Karnataka. It remains to be seen if the move will affect its box office collections.
