On the personal front, Shriya tied the knot to her long-time Russian boyfriend, Andrei Koscheev on March 19, 2018, in traditional Hindu style wedding. Her wedding was a low key affair and was attended by very few celebrities. The only celebrities present at the private affair were Manoj Bajpayee and Shabana Azmi.

On the professional front, Shriya is awaiting the release of her upcoming (Tamil) suspense drama Naragasooran, which is slated to release on September 13, 2018. The film, that features an ensemble cast of Arvind Swami, Indrajith, Sundeep Kishan and Aathmika in pivotal roles, is most likely to lock horns with Sivakarthikeyan’s Seemaraja at the box-office.

The actress also has a couple of projects in different languages. She has Prakash Raj's Tadka, which also stars Nana Patekar in a pivotal role. The film is a remake of Malayalam hit Salt N' Pepper. Apart from Tadka, Shriya will also be seen in Sudheer Babu's Telugu film, Veera Bhoga Vasantha Rayalu. Watch this space for further updates.
