Shetty in 2017

In 2012, Shetty entered the Indian film industry. She first signed to Shivani, a bilingual horror flick, made in Telugu and Tamil,[10] in which she played a journalist.[5] However, the delay of this film meant that Shetty's maiden release was the Kannada film Nam Duniya Nam Style (2013) by Preetham Gubbi.[6] While the film received mixed reviews, critics noted that Shetty had "given [a] lively performance" [11] and "show[n] tremendous promise".[12] Her future releases include the semi-period Kannada film Vijayaaditya.[4] She has also been cast as one of the female leads in A. L. Vijay's next Tamil film, which according to Shetty is a "fun-filled" romantic drama set against a college backdrop.[13]

Shetty saw success with Ishtakamya, directed by well known filmmaker Nagathihalli Chandrashekar.[14] She had three film releases in 2017: Smile Please,[15] starring Gurunandan, MMM',[16] with Aru Gowda; and Silicon City,[17] with Srinagar Kitty.

The year 2020 and 2021 saw Kavya in movies of both Kannada and Telugu language.[18] Kavya set her feet on the sets of Ravichandran's upcoming movie Ravi Bopanna[19] as a lead female, while she was seen in the title track of Yuvarathna[20] starring Puneeth Rajkumar.

Kavya is seen in her upcoming Telugu movie Gurthunda Seethakalam with Satyadev and Tamannaah, directed by Nagashekar.[18] One of the other major project is Yogi-starrer Lanke where she is sharing screens with Sanchari Vijay, Krishi Thapanda[21] Kavya is working on her next project with Jayaram Karthik titled Kaada.[22] The movie is set to release early next year. Her other upcoming projects are Sold[23] which is ready for release and 6C[24] for which the shooting is yet to commence.
