Success, critical acclaim and hiatus (2013-2017)

Nazriya made her lead screen debut in the Malayalam film Maad Dad (2013), alongside Lal and Lalu Alex. [13] Times of India said, "Nazriya appears burdened by a badly conceived role that appears too heavy for her." [14] She next appeared in the Malayalam-Tamil bilingual Neram , marking her Tamil debut. She was associated with the team of Yuvvh—director Alphonse Putharen and actor Nivin Pauly again for the film. [15] A major commercial success, the scene where Nivin proposes to Nazriya acquired cult status among the audience. [16] [17] Paresh C Palicha stated that she has a "striking screen presence". The film won her the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut – South. [18]

Later, Nazriya played an IT professional Keerthana, in the Tamil film Raja Rani , opposite Arya. [19] Gautaman Bhaskaran from Hindustan Times noted, "The he one person who caught my attention was Nazriya Nazim, who as Arya's lover, is absolutely gorgeous with a face that is so expressive that we do not need her to speak".

The film received negative reviews and was her only failure that year. [22] [23]

Rao of The Hindu appreciated Nazriya and added that her "eyes speak volumes". It became a box office success. [29]

[39] A commercial success, it earned her another Best Actress – Malayala Filmfare nomination. [40] Anna MM Vetticad opined: "The writing and Nazriya’s acting often cutesify Jenny. Though this sort of hyper-bubbly girl is too familiar a sight in commercial Indian cinema, Nazriya’s charm is hard to resist." [41]

In 2020, she reunited with Fahad, in Trance , playing a model and sex worker Esther. [42] The film became a box-office failure, but Cris from The News Minute found her character to be "charming" and added that she has matured as an actor.
