In 1968, Fonseka won a national award for Best Stage Drama Actress for her performance in Akal Wessa produced by Dharmadasa Jayaweera. From 1963 to 1969, Fonseka played the lead role in 14 stage dramas including; B. Ratnayake's Amal Biso, Sam Perera's Iwa Bawa Nathi Lowa, S. Karunaratne's Guththila, Erabudu Mal Pottu Pipila, Hiru Awarata Giyado, Sunanda Mahendra's Sayuren Aa Landa, Prema Kumara Epitawela's Nuwana Podiya, Sathischandra Edirisinghe's Baka Thapas, Sumana Aloka Bandara's Nidhi Kumba, and Gunasena Galappatty's Liyathambara.[10]

The she acted in the films Abudasse kale, Dahasak Sithuwili and Adarawanthayo in the same year. The success of these movies led her to be cast as the lead role by several movie directors of the time. Fonseka acted in over 140 movies thereafter, some of which were international movies. She paired up with popular Indian Tamil actor, Sivaji Ganeshan in Pilot Premnath in 1978. Her career was enhanced by her work alongside Gamini Fonseka who had a long journey in the history of the silver screen in Sri Lanka. At his funeral in 2004, Fonseka stated "His performance had appeal across the board and I had the good fortune of being associated with Gamini. The cinema of that era is slowly fading away and the passing away of Gamini is another step towards that direction".[23] Her popularity peaked in the 1970s and 1980s, as she collaborated with renowned directors, including Lester James Peries and Dharmasena Pathiraja.[24] She successfully made her mark in both Imitative popular cinema (with the films: Mē Dǣsa Kumaṭada (1972), Suhada Pæthuma (1973) Sangeethā (1975) and Næwatha Hamuvemu (1982) as well as Cinematic popular cinema (with the films: Dæn Mathakada (1970) Hathara Denāma Sūrayō (1971), Edath Sūrayā Adath Sūrayā (1972), Adarē Hithenava Dækkama (1972) and Thuṣhārā (1973) at the same time. In the meantime, she became a trendsetter by fashion designs (Mini Frocks, Bell Bottoms, Swimming kit, Cabare kits) and hair cuts for the fans island wide.[10]

As a bridge between two immortal eras in Sri Lankan cinema: Vijaya-Malini and Gamini-Malini made huge impact on Sri Lankan cinema with several blockbuster films. The Gamini-Malini era was polished with the romantic action films such as Nidhānaya, Sahanaya, Edath Surayā Adath Surayā, Hondaṭa Hondayi, Hondayi Narakayi, Avā Soyā Adarē, Kawuda Rājā, and Surayā Surayāmayi. Meanwhile, Vijaya-Malini era powered with romantic thriller films such as Thuṣārā, Susee, Sangīthā, Pradīpē Mā Wēvā, Unnath Dāhayi Maḷath Dāhayi, Diyamanthi, Eyā Dæn Loku Lamayek, Pembara Madhu, Bæddēgama and Madhusamaya.[10] With these blockbuster movies, she became the only actress to win the Most Popular Actress award multiple times where Gamini and Vijaya won the Most Popular Actor award five times in a row respectively.

In the film Sally, Fonseka played the same role with five different guises: a maid, a married woman, a prostitute, a woman addicted to smoking and drinking, and a crazy woman.[10]

Fonseka is also credited to play the first action packed heroine character in Sri Lankan cinema, with the film Raktha. Then she achieved a significant milestone with Sasara Chetana in 1984 as both the director and the producer. The film won the Sarasaviya Award for the Best Action film in that year and was a economically successful film.[10] Her directorial venture saw three other films: Ahimsa in 1987, Sthree in 1991 and Sanda Madala in 1994.[25]
