Padma Priya started her career as a model and appeared in several commercials and television shows. Her breakthrough role came in 2002 with the Malayalam film "Nizhal" directed by A. K. Gopan. She gained recognition for her performances in films like "Kalasam" (2005) and "Thathayya" (2005).

On her Official Instagram , she often shares glimpses of her journey "on the mat," embracing yoga and strength training to stay centered.

A true Malayali at heart, her "Chef on Duty" moments are pure entertainment. From whipping up spicy Kerala beef fry to healthy ragi puttu , her kitchen videos are authentic. She doesn’t pretend to be a gourmet chef; she shows the mess, the laughter, and the joy of cooking for her kids.
