Early life

Sri Divya was born in Hyderabad of present-day Telangana on 1 April 1993.[1] Divya has an elder sister, Sri Ramya. who also acts in Telugu and Tamil films.[2][3] Sri Divya studied in the Kendriya Vidyalaya.[4]

Career

Sri Divya started her career at the age of three. She has also acted in Telugu television serials.[5][6]

She made her debut as a heroine in the 2010 Telugu romance film Manasara, directed by Ravi Babu, but the film was a failure.[4] Then she featured in the film Bus Stop (2012) directed by Maruthi, co-starring Prince, which was successful at the box office.[7] It was followed by Mallela Theeram Lo Sirimalle Puvvu in which she played a lonely wife who falls in love with a writer.[8] About her performance, The Hindu wrote, "she looks very charming; the cotton saris bring out the grace in her".[9] Idlebrain.com wrote, "Sri Divya epitomizes the character of an idealistic and independent woman. She did well and deserves applause".[10]

Her Tamil debut was Varuthapadatha Valibar Sangam opposite Siva Karthikeyan, which was directed by Ponram. Sri Divya received very positive reviews from critics for her performance.[11] Baradwaj Rangan wrote, "the actress is good. She knows the language, knows how to work a reaction shot, and she looks like she belongs in this milieu. It will be interesting to see what Tamil cinema makes of her".[12] The Times of India wrote, "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".[13] The New Indian Express wrote, "As Latha, debutant Sridivya emotes well, infusing the character with innocence, charm and naughtiness".[14]

In 2014 she appeared in two Tamil films, Suseenthiran's Jeeva[15] and Vellaikaara Durai.
