Rimi Tomy had risen to fame since her debut solo song Chingamasam in the movie Meesa Madhavan which was released in 2002. The song was chartbuster and the playback singer had never looked back ever since the film. She is also known for her dynamic stage performances.

Rimi Tomy is also a regular member of the judge's panel in the famous reality show Comedy Stars which is broadcasted on Asianet Television Network.

The singer had been at the center of controversy when an alleged video of her stage performance went viral. In the video, the singer seems to slap a drunk troublemaker who tried to hinder her stage performance. Though the singer's face was not bright, the video went viral within hours across all the digital platforms. Later, her husband had clarified that the singer is not Rimi Tomy and wholly denied any occurrence of such an incident.

During her earlier days of career, she was a part of the popular band Angel Voice. During one of her stage performances, she was spotted by famous mimicry artist and director Nadirshah who referred her to Lal Jose who was then directing Meesa Madhavan and was looking for a young voice to compose the sing of his movie.

Rimi had also tried her luck on the big screen in various Malayalam movies. Some of which has been a commercial success. Movies like Thinkal Muthal Velli Vare, Kunjiramayanam, Balram VS Tharadas, Karyasthan are to name a few.

The reason behind the couple’s decision to part their ways after 11 long years of marriage is still abstruse. The fans are yet to receive an official statement from the couples regarding their decision.
