Career

Iswarya Menon was first seen in the Tamil comedy film Theeya Velai Seiyyanum Kumaru and its Telugu version Something Something.[6] She debuted as Akshara in the Kannada industry with Dasavala which was directed by M S Ramesh. She was cast opposite Prem, of Jogi fame.[7] The film released on October 11, 2013 and her performance as a mentally challenged girl was generally well received.[8][9][10][11] Oneindia however wrote "Akshara, though looks cute, doesn't have good on-screen chemistry with the lead actor. She has given poor performance as a mentally challenged girl".[12]
