Sreeleela's start in the industry

Sreeleela is an American actress of Indian origin who started her acting career with the 2017 film 'Chitrangada' as a child artist as she enacted the younger version of Sindhu Tolani on screen. She then debuted with the 2019 Kannada film 'Kiss' where she shared the screen with Viraat. Despite having connections in the Telugu film industry, Sreeleela chose to start with Kannada films because she grew up in Bangalore.

In 2021, Leela made her debut in Telugu cinema in the romantic musical film 'Pelli SandaD', where she shared the screen with Roshan. She also worked with Ram Pothineni in the 2023 film 'Skanda'.
