Arundhati is an Indian actress who appears in Tamil and Kannada-language films. Arundhati made her debut in a Tamil movie Veluthu Kattu (2010) which was produced by S. A. Chandrasekhar.

Director and producer S. A. Chandrashekar spotted and approached Arundhati, then still a student, in a temple and offered her a pivotal role in the film Veluthu Kattu . [1] The film's box office returns were average, though critics have praised her performance.[ citation needed ]
S. A. Chandrashekar gave her the screen name Arundhati, which was then adopted by the Tamil film industry. She was very choosy about her role, and this resulted in her turning down some offers until she acted in Bodinayakkanur Ganesan (2011) and Sundaattam (2013) opposite Irfan. In 2014, she appeared in a challenging role in Netru Indru as a police officer who is disguised as a prostitute. The movie did not do well at the box office.
She then appeared in the romantic thriller Thottal Thodarum (2015) opposite Thaman Kumar after playing a pivotal role in the comedy-thriller movie Naaigal Jaakirathai (2014) opposite Sibi Sathyaraj. This movie turned out to be a box office hit, and it received positive reviews from the critics. [2] In 2016, she played the female lead in the action flick Arthanari, which was a box-office disaster. She played a role in Kaala , which had an ensemble cast. She has been signed to play the lead in Mugam , which is currently under production. [3]
