പരമേശ്വരന് പിള്ളയുടെയും ചിന്നമ്മയുടെയും മകളായി 1963ലാണു് ജനനം. നാടകരംഗത്തു നിന്നു വന്ന കനകലത കൊല്ലം ഗവണ്മെന്റ് ഗേള്സ് ഹൈസ്ക്കൂളിലാണു് വിദ്യാഭ്യാസം പൂര്ത്തിയാക്കിയതു്. 1976ല് ഡിസംബറില് കനകലത ആദ്യമായി നാടകാഭിനയത്തിനു് സ്റ്റേജില് കയറി. തുടര്ന്നു് നൂറു കണക്കിനു സ്റ്റേജുകളില് പ്രത്യക്ഷപ്പെട്ടു. നല്ല നടി എന്ന പേരു് നേടി. എ കെ രാജീവിന്റെ അഭയാര്ത്ഥികള്, പഞ്ചവര്ണ്ണക്കിളി എന്നീ നാടകങ്ങളിലെ വേഷങ്ങള് മികച്ചു നിന്നു.
ദൃശ്യാ ഫിലിംസിന്റെ ബാനറില് പി എ ബക്കര് സംവിധാനം ചെയ്ത ഉണര്ത്തു പാട്ടാണു് കനകലതയുടെ ആദ്യ ചിത്രം. തുടര്ന്നു് നിരവധി ചിത്രങ്ങളില് അഭിനയിച്ചു. ടെലിവിഷന് രംഗത്തു് സജീവമാണു്.
