Born on February 2, 1991 in Tbilisi, her name is translated from Georgian as Sunbeam. By profession she is a landscape designer. She has had no acting education.[4][5]

At the age of 17 she began a modeling career. She starred in several commercials, where she was noticed by Georgian film directors. She also played in several short films. In 2010 she debuted in the feature film thriller Season, directed by Dato Borchkhadze. The first fame she brought the role of Lesya in the romantic comedy by Rezo Gigineishvili Love with an Accent. Dalakishvili got into the project almost at the last moment, because initially Oksana Akinshina had to play Lesya.[6][7]
