The success of the film Kushi became a turning point in her career.[19][20] A string of successful films followed between 2000 and 2002, among them Mugavaree, Dum Dum Dum and Snegithiye. Her characters had equal importance as the hero.[21] She also acted with Kamal Haasan during this period, in the comedy film Thenali.[19] She was awarded the Filmfare Best Tamil Actress Award for her role in Kushi.[13][22][23] Her role in Rhythm though small, has been widely appreciated.[24] After the success of Kushi, she was signed to play the female lead in Friends opposite Vijay but she was replaced by Devayani.[25] She collaborated with Mani Ratnam for the first time by appearing in his production house Madras Talkies' romantic comedy Dumm Dumm Dumm alongside Madhavan.

She got International Tamil Film Awards Special Jury For Best Actress.[32] Dhool, Kaakha Kaakha and Thirumalai were amongst the top 10 films of the year and The Hindu wrote that she was "virtually the undisputed queen of Kollywood".[33] Actor Vikram referred her as Lady Kamal Hassan due to her dedication in Acting.[34] In 2004, she acted in a double role in the critically acclaimed Perazhagan opposite Suriya. She won Tamil Nadu State Best Actress Awardfor the film. In 2005, she acted in Manmadhan opposite Silambarasan.[35][36] She also performed the lead female role in the Telugu film Tagore, opposite Chiranjeevi, which was screened at the International Indian Film Academy Awards, and was a commercial success.[37][38]
