Career
Aashritha was born in Madurai to a Tamil family. She did modelling for print advertisements, while also winning the Vivel Miss South India’s Beautiful Face pageant and finishing runner up in the Miss Andhra Pradesh contest.[citation needed] Following appearances in beauty pageants, Aashritha made her acting debut in the low-budget village-centric film Isakki (2013), where she portrayed a teacher. A critic from The Times of India noted that "Aashrita makes a decent debut as a strong and independent woman who stands up to her father".[1][2] In 2014, she played the female lead opposite Akhil in Dhanush 5am Vaguppu, which had a low-key release.[3] In 2015, she played the lead female role opposite Ramesh Thilak in Vijay Sethupathi's production Orange Mittai (2015), portraying a town girl called Kavya.[4] The film opened to positive reviews, but did not perform well at the box office.[5]
Aashritha then moved on to work on Nagaraj's Azhahendra Sollukku Amudha, playing the titular role, after auditioning successfully for the film.[6][7][8]
