The first released movie was Shivaranjini opposite Raghavendra Rajkumar and the second release was Shiva Sainya opposite Shivarajkumar. The latter film was successful and she began to get offers from many other production houses. She made a cameo appearance alongside Ramesh Aravind in the hit movie Amrutha Varshini. She also played a vital role in the Arjun Sarja, Tabu starrer Tamil film, Thaayin Manikodi. She had been set to star again opposite Arjun in Selva's Thenaali Raja, but the film was later cancelled.[2]

While she was hospitalized, her father, hoping it would bring good fortune and help her recover from her coma, renamed her Nivedita Rinki.[6]
