Career

Swathi began her career in entertainment through the television show Andamaina Bhamalu in 2009, where she won the title. The success led her to appear in ad films and appear in two films as a child artiste. Her first major acting role was in the Bengali film Tor Naam, before she worked on the Telugu drama film Break Up.
In 2014, Swathi received a breakthrough after being cast in Ram Gopal Varma's Telugu horror film Patta Pagalu.

During the period, she also moved on to work in two relatively high profile Telugu films, Jump Jilani, where she played a village girl opposite Allari Naresh and Ladies & Gentlemen.
In 2017, she appeared in three films; with her first release being the horror film Chitrangada co-starring Anjali. She later made her debut in Tamil films and featured in the low budget horror film Sathura Adi 3500 and the fantasy film Simba alongside Bharath.
