She subsequently featured in films including Pasupathi c/o Rasakkapalayam (2007) in Vivek's comedy track and Poova Thalaiya (2011) as a prostitute, before landing a role in Siva's Siruthai (2011) as a police officer. Siva had chosen her after being impressed with some promotional stills from her film Nellai Sandhippu (2012), and Megha's height was also a factor in convincing the director to cast her in the film. Featuring alongside Karthi and Tamannaah, Siruthai remains Megha's highest profile work to date.
