Career

In 2008, Reshmi Menon was pursuing Visual Communication at Women's Christian College, Chennai, a course she enrolled for because she "loved the media". She accompanied her friend to the auditions for the Prakash Raj production, Inidhu Inidhu (2010), when she herself got the opportunity to essay a lead role in it. Accepting the offer, she shot for the film while still studying, revealing that she had to skip classes at WCC to work in the film. Reshmi was one of several newcomers to make their acting debuts in Inidhu Inidhu. A remake of the Telugu film Happy Days, it had her reprising the role originally played by Tamannaah and critics were divided on her performance. While The Hindu felt that she was a "cute find", Sify's critic claimed that she "sticks out like a sore thumb".Sekhar Kammula, the director of the original film, however, had stated that he forgot Tamannaah and could only see Reshmi, when he saw the remake.
