Starting off her career in cinema, the actress initially appeared as a child artist in Malayalam films like Suresh Gopi’s Pilots, Achaneyanenikkishtam, and Dileep starrer Kuberan, all produced by her father.

In 2013, the actress debuted in the lead role in the movie Geethaanjali, directed by Priyadarshan.

With Mohanlal reprising his role from the predecessor, the movie also had actors Nishan, Siddique, Madhu, and many more in key roles.
The movie’s filming happened during the actress’ college years and finished in between one of her semester breaks. However, soon after, the Sarkar actress once again arrived at the forefront of another Malayalam movie called Ring Master, now appearing as the pair of her former co-star Dileep. With both Malayalam movies to her name as a lead, Keerthy soon ventured onto debut in Tamil and Telugu cinema, namely 2015’s Idhu Enna Maayam and 2016’s Nenu Sailaja, starring Ram Pothineni.
There onwards, Keerthy was being eyed to play leading roles in several star-led movies in Tamil and Telugu, including Sivakarthikeyan starrer Remo and Rajinimurugan, Thalapathy Vijay’s Bairavaa, and Nani starrer Nenu Local.
