In Natpukkaga, she again team up with director K. S. Ravikumar paired opposite Sarath Kumar, the movie won several awards including Filmfare Award for Best Film – Tamil. Simran's role as modern belle Prabavati who takes revenge on Chinnayya (Sarath Kumar) for her mother's murder was praised by reviewers.[18] Another success with Ajith Kumar in Aval Varuvala, a Tamil remake of the 1997 Telugu film Pelli.[19] Her role as women suffers from adultery by her husband, was well received by the critics, "Simran proves that she can act too and most of her lip-sync is appreciable".[20] Her next film was Kannedhirey Thondrinal directed by Ravichandran. For the first time, she paired with Prashanth. The success of the movie later led them to be paired in successful movies like Jodi, Parthen Rasithen and Thamizh. Her positive feedback got critical acclaim for her performance. She also appeared in a supporting role with Akkineni Nagarjuna and Deepti Bhatnagar in Telugu Movie Auto Driver a commercial failure.

In 1999 all her movies became highly successful ventures and the year was the luckiest for the actress. Her first Tamil release for the year is Thulladha Manamum Thullum, opposite Vijay. The film had a theatrical run for more than 200 days in theatres at Tamil Nadu. As a blind woman, she was highly appreciated for her performance in the film.

The film opened in September 1999 to positive reviews and became an average. Her role joyful Brahmin girl appreciated by critics.[29] Her next film was Kanave Kalaiyadhe with Murali, in which she played dual roles as bubbly Punjabi girl falls for south Indian boy (played by Murali) and a matured south Indian Brahmin girl, also gained mixed reviews. This is the only film where she played a dual role in her entire cinema career. Kannupada Poguthaiya with Vijayakanth was her next where she played a village belle who forced to marry the brother of the man she loves, which was an average. She then played a woman left alone in a joint family in Time opposite Prabhu Deva. The same year she did "Thottu Thottu Pesum" in Edhirum Pudhirum and "Maana Madhura" in Anthapuram items numbers and both were chartbusters.

In Telugu her only release for the year is Samarasimha Reddy, opposite Balakrishna was recorded as an All Time Industry Hit at the box office. Over the years, the movie was termed to be a trendsetter and achieved cult status[30][31][32][33]

She made another supporting role in 2000 film Khauff with Manisha Koirala and Sanjay Dutt. Simran rejected the role in Mani Rathnam's Dil Se.. which later played by Preity Zinta.[34]

Widespread success and critical acclaim (2000–2004)[edit]

Her success continued in 2000 with Tamil with films Priyamaanavale again with Vijay and Parthen Rasithen again with Prashanth. In Priyamaanavale, she played a suffering woman from a premarital agreement was gained wide appreciation for her role. Her performance was labelled by cinematoday as "a clean family entertainer that with its Indian culture-versus foreign culture theme would appeal to family audiences" and mentioned that "the script is cleverly crafted", and that "Vijay neatly underplayed his role with Simran as the perfect foil."[35][36] In Parthen Rasithen, a romantic thriller which was released on 11 August 2000, and received positive critical reception, she portrayed the role of an antagonist for the first time in her career. The film also saw a third collaboration between Simran and Prashanth following Kannedhirey Thondrinal and Jodi. Simran's performance received unanimous critical acclaim. Also, Prashanth and Simran received Best Onscreen Couple Award in Cinema Express Award.[37] Hindu wrote "It is a spectacular role for Simran and she has made optimum use of it. A well-etched character that is suspenseful at every turn. Simran's eyes sparkle with animus, jealousy and venom in the scene in which she confronts Laila. Laila as the docile, taciturn beauty is an appealing foil to the fiery and vibrant Simran".[38] Lolluexpress described "This movie really proved that how SIMRAN has been wasted these days. I think the best actress in Kodambakkam today is SIMRAN. After her Strong and Sexy performance in VAALEE Simran has come back with yet another Strong and good role in "Parthen Rasithen". She was the best in this movie. One could really feel her acting in her expressions. It's not that easy for heroines today to do a role like this. Especially her Villain role in the second half of the movie really proved that she is not only a Barbie Doll but a doll which can act.".[39] Critic Balaji noted "Simran is the star of the show here. She proved in Vaali that she was not all glamour but also had the goods when it came to acting and she cements that reputation here. Her expressive eyes speak volumes whether radiating happiness or showing fiery anger and her dialog delivery enhances her performance in the second half. Quite possibly the best performance of her career so far. She also looks beautiful, especially in the dream sequence".[40] In 2013, Vijay Sethupathi was asked about his favourite romantic moments in cinema and what Valentine's Day means to him. He commented that "I've always been a huge admirer of Simran. I loved her in films like V. I. P. , Once More and Parthen Rasithen".[41] Simran's performance was featured in JFW magazine's list of "5 Heroines Who Stunned Us By Playing Negative Roles".[42] Similarly, Indiaglitz.com also listed Simran's portrayal in their list of "The Super Villains of Tamil Cinema" and credited her for the success of the film.[43] Her other release Unnai Kodu Ennai Tharuven opposite Ajith Kumar is a commercial and critical failure. A reviewer from The Hindu citing that "Simran shines in songs and emotional scenes too, though the actress is wasted her dates with such an underwritten film, which hardly makes an impact.".[44]

Her Telugu films Yuvaraju with Mahesh Babu and Goppinti Alludu with Balakrishna were released same year and claimed average grossers in box office. But she received acclaim for her performances in both films. For Yuvaraju idlebrain.com referred Simran as "Simran enters the film at the time of interval and dominates the whole second half with her demure and under played emotions. But it's her demure action that won the laurels."[45] telugucinema.com called "Coming to heroines they have been used for a glamour boost and they look good. Simran shows her acting talents while Sakshi has nothing to offer in the movie.".[46][47] for Goppinti Alludu, Idlebrain.com stated "Among three heroines obviously Simran who is looking gorgeous and also emotes well."[48] And she made dance number with Chiranjeevi in Annayya.

But she also had highly successful Kalisundam Raa with Venkatesh and Nuvvu Vastavani with Nagarjuna same year. Nuvvu Vastavani is the Telugu remake of her own Tamil film Thulladha Manamum Thullum where she reprised her role again. Same as Tamil, she received anonymous praise for her performance in Telugu too. Review from fullyhyd noted "Simran looks fabulous and emotes as blind woman more realistically".[49] In National Award winning industry hit Kalisundam Raa, She played the highly egoistic girl Mangaa who sacrifice her love for the sake of her family was also acclaimed. "Simran is so fresh and coming up with a thumb-up performance by overshadowing others she holds the entire film" a critic noted.[50]

In 2001, she concentrated on Telugu films and had a mixed year with Mrugaraju and Daddy, with Chiranjeevi and Bava Nachadu, with Nagarjuna which became poor grossers. Her movie Narasimha Naidu, was with Balakrishna became industry hit and Simran as wife who becomes the victim for her husband's opponent was appreciated and gained her a nomination in Filmfare Award in Telugu Cinema for the first and last time.

In Tamil film Industry She had only two releases. Her first release is directorial debut of cinematographer Jeeva's 12B, opposite then-newcomer Shaam and Jyothika. The plot of the movie is loosely based on the British-American romantic drama film Sliding Doors. Though the film performed modestly at the box office, Simran as "Young widow who has soft-corner on her colleague, struggles to cross her cultural lines" was highly appreciated by critics and audience. The Hindu mentioning that Simran does a commendable job in the climax.[51]Rediff.com concluded Simran continues with her policy of shifting gradually from glam roles to the more sedate, serious ones and proves to have what it takes.[52] Same year she worked with Balachandar in his 100th production venture Paarthale Paravasam paired with Madhavan, tells the story of a couple going through a break-up after the husband is exposed for having a child from a juvenile relationship. Though the movie is commercial failure "Simran" as "Simi" "an obsessed possessive wife" was well received by critics.

The film was a box-office success and was received positively by critics at its release. She won several accolades for her performance for Kannathil Muthamittal, including a Filmfare award and also briefly considered for National Film Award for Best Actress, yet she didn't lend her own voice led her to lose it.
