Nakshatra has said that she had always wanted to become an actress. Her parents were initially against her wish as she was their "pampered daughter" and did not want to see her go through any hardships.

At age 17, Nakshatra was spotted by director Sunil Kumar Desai at a function, who called her mother, Sumithra, and expressed interest in casting her in his film. She was given the starring role in Desai's Saregama and shortly after landed a role in Gokula, which also became her maiden release, and one of the lead roles in Hare Rama Hare Krishna. She played a shy girl in Gokula and got to co-act with her mother. Critics were positive on her performance in that film, stating that she was "quite impressive", "steals the show" and "strikes in a small role".
