After watching that movie, my mother asked, 'How did you continue as an actress for so long?' My role in that movie did not get any recognition. Even though the movie had great actors like Vasudevan and Sathyaraj, it didn't work for me at all. Also, many of the films I acted in failed at the box office. So, I entered the Telugu film industry. I decided to take advantage of every opportunity that came my way," said Ramya Krishnan.

Initially, she acted in glamorous roles, but later she proved her talent by acting in power-packed roles, which brought her due recognition. 'Baahubali' and Rajinikanth's 'Narasimha'. Neelambari's role in 'Narasimha' brought her laurels and as an anti-heroine, she excelled in the role.
