Vijay Deverakonda is all set to start shooting for his new film, and he has the gorgeous Sreeleela for company!

Directed by National Award-winning film-maker Gowtam Tinnanuri, the spy thriller will go on floors in June.

So just who is Sreeleela? Namrata Thakker scrolls through her Instagram feed for a closer look.

 

Sreeleela was born in the US, but raised in Bangalore by her mother.

Her parents Swarnalatha and Surapaneni Subhakara parted ways even before she was born.

 

The 21 year old landed her first film after Director A P Arjun came across her pictures on social media and was highly impressed.

 

That's how Sreeleela signed her Kannada debut film Kiss and started shooting for it in 2017.

Kiss released in September 2019 and became a smash hit.

Sreeleela grabbed everyone's attention with her acting chops and a month later, her second film, Bharaate (above), also became a hit.

 

In 2021, Sreeleela made her Telugu debut with the romantic musical Peeli SandaD. Though the movie failed at the box office, her performance was appreciated.

 

Last year, Sreeleela had two releases, one in Kannada and one in Telugu.

Dhamaka opposite Ravi Teja was one of the highest grossing Telugu films of 2022.

While Sreeleela has already established herself in the acting world, she aspires to become a doctor like her mother.
