Payal began her online presence creating lip-sync videos, initially collaborating with her then-husband Armaan Malik and Kritika Malik on short-form platforms. Over time she moved into producing her own content and became a regular presence across multiple family-operated YouTube channels, including Family Fitness, Armaan Malik, Chirayu Payal Malik, Family Fitness Shorts, Number 1 Records, and Talk with Kritika and Payal.
Her credited onscreen debut in music videos came with the 2021 track "Yamraj," and she has appeared in several other songs since, including Mera Ni Hoya (2021), Kamaal Hojya Ga (2022), Kami (2022), and Es Janam (2022). Beyond videos, Payal co-owns a beauty salon called Hair Garden Salon in Zirakpur with Kritika Malik and regularly shares lifestyle content such as cooking and fitness routines with her audience.

Several public incidents involving Payal and her family have received media attention. These include disputes linked to Armaan Malik, online critiques and prank videos that sparked reactions, and discussions around overlapping pregnancies within the extended family.
