Peppy. Carefree. Youthful.... come to mind when one thinks of Sreeleela.
Raised in Detroit, she currently rules hearts in the Kannada and Telugu film industries.
2019 marked her debut with Kiss. Alongside Ravi Teja, she was the toast of Dhamaka (2022).
At age three, Sreeleela started twirling on her tippy-toes and learning Bharatanatyam. She has combined her love for acting and dance in her movies.
This year saw her in Boyapati Rapo and Bhagavanth Kesari (which released on OTT on November 23) and among her next are Mahesh Babu's Guntur Kaaram and Pawan Kalyan's Ustaad Bhagat Singh.
A student of medicine, the 22 year old brings a touch of individualist style to every film she's graced.
Never over-the-top, never understated, she's a 'blessed mess' in smart casuals.
Her advice: 'Always dance like no one's watching'.
