Popular for her role in the Telugu serial Guppedantha Manasu, she gained wider recognition through her film work in Telugu, Kannada, and multilingual projects. Early credits include supporting roles, but she has since taken on lead and pivotal parts in ambitious ventures.
Her recent highlight is the sci-fi action thriller Killer (also styled as KILLR or Killer: Part 1 - Dream Girl), directed by Poorvaaj (Suku Poorvaj), where she stars as the central figure—often referred to as "SuperSHE" or Venomous Rai—in a groundbreaking story blending emotion, AI, and rebellion. The film, featuring intense romantic and high-stakes sequences, completed filming with multiple shooting schedules, song launches (including "FIRE & ICE"), and glimpses released in 2025. It's in final post-production with heavy VFX, positioned as India's first "SuperShe" superhero saga, promising a theatrical release soon in multiple languages.
She also features in Halka Don (Kannada) and the anticipated A Masterpiece (multilingual, awaiting release). Jyoti's confident style and powerful screen energy continue to make her a rising force in pan-South cinema, with fans eagerly awaiting her next big impact.
