Nirosha did her O/Ls at BLC International and began doing A/Ls privately. During this time, through her elder sister, Nilushi Perera who did the main tele role in 'Muthu Menik', youth's paper 'Sanda Renu' approached her for a cover page. After a great hesitation, Nirosha appeared for the cover picture. And it was a 'hit'. Swarnavahini TV who was looking for a pretty and witty girl for their newest Sinhala musical programme 'Vega Gee' spotted the little Monroe. In 1997 her very first appearance on the small screen was telecast.
