She got a prestigious project 'Skaria Pothan Jeevichiripundu' opposite Superstar Mohanlal, but the film was shelved. It was her character Sherly in Lal Jose's 'Achanurangatha Veedu'(2005) which became an eye opener to her. She became more popular in the melodious song sequence 'Pachappanamthathe.. ' from the movie 'Nottam'(2006) which had a catchy beat and was picturised well. Her characters in 'Moonamathoral'(2006), 'Pothen Vava'(2006) and 'Vaasthavam' (2006) were memorable. Her latest releases 'Hello'(2007), 'Arabikatha'(2007), 'Chocolate'(2007), 'Minnaminnikoottam'(2008), 'Thirakkatha'(2008) are super hits. She appeared in guest role in Priyanandanan's 'Pulijanmam'(2006) and Rafi Mecartin's ‘Hello’(2007). She also appeared in the multi-starrer Twenty:20.

Her debut Telugu movie was 'Evadithe Nakenti'(2007), a remake of Malayalayam hit 'Lion'. She has proved her credentials as an actress through her roles in Malayalam movies and now she is all set to venture into other South Indian languages. Her hobbies include watching movies, riding motorbikes and "sleeping".
The title ‘Hello’ has a special place in Samvrutha’s career. It was the title of the first film she had signed.
Director Renjith had planned to do a film with the same title. But it got shelved for some reasons. Had it been filmed, it would have been her first film. She was also considered for the movie 'Nandanam' to play Balamani’s character, but the shooting was planned during her board examination. So her parents decided against her acting in that film.[1]
Starting with ‘Rasikan,’ Samvritha went on to do three films with director Lal Jose, whom she fondly refers to as her mentor.
