Sindhuri began her acting career by portraying a supporting role in
Shankar's
Boys (2003), where she appeared as one of the four friends of
Genelia D'Souza who get courted by the film's titular characters. Portraying the role of a North Indian hipster girl opposite
Bharath, the success of the film saw her gain offers to play leading roles in
Mumtaj's production
Thathi Thavadhu Manasu (2003) and
Ennavo Pudichirukku (2004). The two films had low key releases, and despite playing diverse roles of a village girl and a college student, Sindhuri was unable to get a break to work on bigger films. Her following films also failed to establish her as an actress with
Super Da (2004) and
Niram, having a limited release. During the period she was also cast in
Unarchigal (2006) but eventually did not feature, while other films including
Kannamapettai and
Flowers opposite Vaseegaran were stalled midst production. She appeared in the successful Telugu comedy film
Gundamma Gaari Manavadu (2007) opposite director
Ali, with the film remaining her biggest success as an actress in a leading role. She also forayed into the Malayalam film industry, with
Shambu, originally shot in 2004, having a theatrical release in 2008. In December 2008, Sindhuri expressed her interest in gaining more roles to work in Tamil films and took part in glamorous photoshoots, while also expressing her interest to feature in
item numbers. ==Filmography==
