Divya Prabha has been working in the Malayalam film industry for the past ten years, delivering fine performances in films like Take Off (2017), Ariyippu (2022) and Thamaasha (2019).
She has been in the limelight after her splendid performance in All We Imagine As Light. The movie directed by Payal Kapadia won the Grand Prix award at Cannes this year.

"I felt working with Payal and her team would be a good experience. When I read the script, it felt like an extremely well-written novel. I liked the politics of the script too."
Acting was a coincidence. I was jogging, and incidentally, a shoot was happening nearby. The makers spotted me and asked me to do a small role. That is how I started acting.
I would say my characters in Ariyippu and All We Imagine As Light were challenging because in these two films, my characters were important from start to end and I also had to shoulder the movies.
From a creative space, every filmmaker can make any type of film, by believing their craft and capacity. I have always felt that there is no need to address a filmmaker by their gender.
I am doing a movie with Asif Ali directed by Thamar. There are some other projects too which will be announced soon. Another movie is Marthyaloka Ithihasam directed by Atal Krishnan.
