Being passionate about films and photography since she was young, Srinda started her film career as an assistant director.<ref name="toi26may">{{cite news |author=Soman, Deepa |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movies/news-and-interviews/My-friends-ask-me-how-I-tricked-Mammukka-into-clicking-a-selfie-Srinda-Ashab/articleshow/35603540.cms |title=My friends ask me how I tricked Mammukka into clicking a selfie: Srinda Arhaan |agency=TNN |access-date=7 May 2019 |newspaper=Times Of India |date=26 May 2014 |archive-date=14 February 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160214170558/http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movies/news-and-interviews/My-friends-ask-me-how-I-tricked-Mammukka-into-clicking-a-selfie-Srinda-Ashab/articleshow/35603540.cms |url-status=live }}</ref> She then briefly worked as a television anchor but felt her "heart wasn't in it. I felt like something was missing, which I found in films".<ref name=hindu5/> Before appearing in a documentary, she modelled for products such as hair oils and jewellery brands. This eventually led her to feature films, where she was noticed by director [[Dileesh Nair]], who introduced her to [[Aashiq Abu]].

Even though her debut film was ''Four Friends'' (2010), Aashiq Abu's ''[[22 Female Kottayam]]'' (2012) is considered her cinematic debut. She played the lead character's friend.<sup>[1]</sup> Srinda stated that the film "shaped her as an actor".<ref name=hindu5 /> In the following months, she played supporting roles in several films, such as ''[[Thattathin Marayathu]]'' (2012), ''[[101 Weddings]]'' (2012), ''[[North 24 Kaatham]]'' (2013), ''[[Artist (film)|Artist]]'' (2013), and ''[[Annayum Rasoolum]]'' (2013).
