She rose to prominence with the telly show Colors. Since then, she has become popular as Colors Swati.
When she first started her career, she did manage to get a following among the youngsters with her style of anchoring. Though she was not a stunner, she did have her fans.
Despite acting in films such as Aadavaari Maatalaku Ardhale Verule, Ashta Chemma and Swami Ra Ra, she could not make it to the top league. She is way behind actresses such as Ileana or Nayanatara.
As she was not getting very many offers in Telugu, she shifted base to Tamil and Malayalam films.
Recently, a new director approached her for a role opposite Prince. It seems she demanded a bound script complete with dialogues. The industry insiders feel that she went overboard by demanding a bound script. While it is a norm to ask about their roles, demanding a bound script has surprised many in the industry. We hope Swati learns her lesson soon!
