This was when film directors Vetrimaaran and Manimaran approached her to play the lead role in their venture, Udhayam NH4.[5] The film saw her play a Bangalore-based Tamil-speaking college girl, who elopes with the character played by Siddharth. She gained mixed reviews for her portrayal in the film, with a reviewer noting she could be a promising actress in the making.[6] Sangeeta Devi from The Hindu said "Newcomer Ashrita Shetty shows promise and her capability of bringing to the screen the vulnerability and innocence of a 17/18-year-old makes her endearing. This girl has huge potential."[7] She then signed the lead in the action adventure film Indrajith opposite Gautham Karthik.[8]
