Lakshmi Ramakrishna stole the hearts of cinema lovers by her splendid performance in her debut film itself. That was "Chakkaramuthu" - Malayalam movie directed by Lohithadas in the year 2006. 

In 2008  Lakshmi Ramakrishna starred in the film "Pirivom Santhippom". 

"Poi Solla Porom" earned a lot of appreciation to Lakshmi Ramakrishna. After PSP she has done 33 movies in a very short span of time, including Mysskin's "Yudhdham Sei". 

And now, Lakshmi Ramakrishna is directing the movie "Aarokanam" which is being produced by AVA Production and Monkey Creative Lab. "Aarokanam" is nearing completion now.

Speaking about her directorial debut Lakshmi Ramakrishna says, 'We started the movie "Aarokanam" only for film festivals. But later on it grew like a commercial movie. Now "Aarokanam" can compete in film festivals and in commercial race as well. We are watching many movies, most of them repeat the same old stories. We are doing "Aarokanam" differently and honestly. Tamil audiences never fail to recognize good movies for example "Mounaguru". In the same way they will surely accept and celebrate "Aarokanam" too.'

It is not necessary for telling a serious thing in the same way. Serious elements can be portrayed in a jolly and positive approach.  I have designed "Aarokanam" like that only. It will tell you a touching story which happened near to me.
