Over time she moved into leading television work and became widely known for portraying Rachna Tripathi in the Zee TV serial Sapne Suhane Ladakpan Ke (2012), a role that brought her broad recognition and several fan-driven awards.

Through the 2010s she continued to work across television formats, appearing in episodic crime and anthology shows including CID, Aahat, Code Red, and Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya.
