from Grokipedia

Tamannaah Bhatia (born 21 December 1989) is an Indian actress who primarily appears in Telugu and Tamil films, with additional roles in Hindi and Malayalam cinema. Born in Mumbai to Sindhi Hindu parents Santosh and Rajni Bhatia, with Sindhi as her mother tongue, she began her career as a child artist at age 15 in the Hindi film Chand Sa Roshan Chehra (2005), before transitioning to South Indian cinema with Telugu debut Sree (2005) and Tamil debut Kedi (2006). Bhatia rose to national prominence portraying Avanthika in the epic action films Baahubali: The Beginning (2015) and its sequel Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017), both directed by S. S. Rajamouli and among the highest-grossing Indian films of all time. Her performances have earned her multiple honors, including two Santosham Film Awards, two South Indian International Movie Awards (SIIMA), and the Kalaimamani state award from Tamil Nadu in 2010 for contributions to Tamil cinema. While her career has been marked by commercial successes in pan-Indian projects, Bhatia has occasionally faced public scrutiny over personal relationships and promotional endorsements, such as the 2025 controversy surrounding her appointment as brand ambassador for Mysore Sandal Soap amid regional linguistic debates in Karnataka.

Early life and education

Family background and childhood

Tamannaah Bhatia was born Tamanna Santosh Bhatia on 21 December 1989 in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, to parents of Sindhi Hindu descent. Her father, Santosh Bhatia, worked as a diamond merchant, providing financial stability to the family, while her mother, Rajni Bhatia, served as a homemaker. Bhatia has one elder brother, Anand Bhatia, and the family resided in the Lokhandwala neighborhood of Andheri, Mumbai, during her early years. Raised in a middle-class household emphasizing traditional Sindhi values, Bhatia's childhood centered on Mumbai's urban environment, where her parents encouraged her interests in dance and performance from a young age, laying the groundwork for her later entry into acting. The family's support proved instrumental, as her father's profession afforded resources that facilitated early exposure to the entertainment industry without reported financial hardships.

Entry into entertainment

Tamannaah Bhatia developed an interest in acting during her childhood and began formal training at the age of 13 by enrolling in workshops at Prithvi Theatre in Mumbai, where she participated in stage performances for one year to hone her skills. This early exposure to theatre laid the groundwork for her transition into film, as she sought opportunities in the industry while still in her mid-teens. Her screen debut came in 2005 at age 15, starring as the female lead in the Hindi romantic drama Chand Sa Roshan Chehra, directed by Shabah Shamsi and co-starring Samir Aftab. The film, which explored themes of young love hindered by class differences, received mixed reviews and failed commercially at the box office, grossing modestly against expectations for a debut vehicle. Despite the setback, the role marked her entry as a professional actress, prompting her to pivot toward Telugu cinema later that year with the supporting role in Sree. Bhatia's early career involved navigating challenges typical for young entrants, including discomfort with certain scene requirements that led to her replacement in unspecified projects, as she later recounted in interviews emphasizing her boundaries at a tender age. This period underscored her determination, as she balanced nascent opportunities with continued skill-building, setting the stage for subsequent regional breakthroughs.

Personal life

Relationships and privacy

Tamannaah Bhatia confirmed a romantic relationship with actor Vijay Varma, which began around 2023 after they met on the set of the Netflix anthology Lust Stories 2. Although the couple has not officially confirmed a breakup, multiple reliable media reports since March 2025 indicate they parted ways after dating for about two years due to differences over marriage commitment, with Bhatia reportedly wanting to settle down while Varma focused on his career. The couple has remained silent on the matter, reports treat it as genuine, and there is no credible evidence indicating the breakup was a publicity stunt. Prior to this, Bhatia has not publicly confirmed any other relationships, though she discussed experiencing two major heartbreaks in a 2024 podcast interview, describing the first as occurring when she was younger and sought to explore more, and the second when she determined the person was not suitable long-term, without naming individuals. She has addressed and denied several persistent rumors, including alleged dating links with cricketer Virat Kohli around 2012, which she dismissed in an August 2025 interview as unfounded speculation. Speculation also arose in 2017 and resurfaced in 2020 linking Bhatia to former Pakistani cricketer Abdul Razzaq, stemming from a professional photograph taken together at a jewelry store event, which she described as "embarrassing" and explicitly refuted as a romantic connection, emphasizing it was merely a work-related interaction. Other unverified rumors, such as those involving director Sajid Khan or US-based individuals, have circulated in tabloid and online forums but lack substantiation from Bhatia or credible evidence. Bhatia has consistently maintained a guarded approach to her personal life, stating in March 2025 amid breakup rumors with Varma that she is "fairly private" and shares only details she feels comfortable disclosing, prioritizing boundaries over public scrutiny. In a September 2025 reflection, she expressed ongoing efforts to cultivate qualities for a future partnership while affirming belief in marriage, though she emphasized career focus as her current priority, underscoring a deliberate separation between professional visibility and private matters.

Lifestyle and public persona


Tamannaah Bhatia maintains a disciplined fitness routine, waking up at 4:30 a.m. for early morning workouts that include at least one hour of gym sessions focusing on weights and abs, supplemented by yoga, swimming, Pilates, or aerobics. She follows this with 8 to 12 hours of work without daytime naps, emphasizing consistency over restrictive diets like keto or intermittent fasting. Her diet prioritizes high-protein meals, hydration, and home-cooked foods with minimal oil, avoiding processed and fried items; a typical breakfast includes poha with sprouts for fiber and protein. Her trainer advocates these habits—protein-focused eating, adequate water intake, and daily 30-minute exercises—for sustainable weight loss of 5-10 kg over 90 days without shortcuts. Bhatia's public persona projects glamour and discipline, bolstered by endorsements for brands including Sugar Cosmetics, Celkon mobiles, Cellecor Gadgets, Diataal, and Havmor Ice Cream. In 2025, she signed a ₹6.2 crore deal as brand ambassador for Karnataka's Mysore Sandal Soap, sparking online backlash over her non-local origins and the state's choice amid local unemployment concerns. She has voiced reluctance to publicize charity, criticizing societal pressure on celebrities to declare contributions amid the 2021 COVID-19 crisis, yet she supported initiatives like aiding 10,000 migrant laborers in 2020 through the NGO Let's All Help. In 2017, she received the Young Icon Award at the Arts for India charity event in London for contributions to underprivileged children, animal welfare, and girls' education.

Career

Debut and early struggles (2005–2010)

Tamannaah Bhatia made her acting debut at the age of 15 in the Hindi romantic drama Chand Sa Roshan Chehra, released on 4 March 2005, where she played the female lead opposite Samir Aftab. The film received poor critical reception and commercially underperformed, grossing approximately ₹0.25 crore against a modest budget, marking it as a disaster at the box office. This initial setback prompted her to shift focus to South Indian cinema, where she debuted in Telugu with Sree later that year, portraying the love interest in an action drama directed by Dasaradh and starring Manoj Manchu. In 2006, Bhatia entered Tamil cinema with Kedi, a vigilante thriller alongside Ravi Krishna, which similarly failed to achieve significant commercial success despite her lead role. Throughout 2007–2009, she took on supporting and leading roles in Telugu films such as Happy Days (2007), a coming-of-age drama, and Konchem Ishtam Konchem Kashtam (2009), a romantic comedy opposite Siddharth, both of which received mixed reviews and modest box-office returns, limiting her early visibility. Bhatia later reflected on this period as one of persistence amid underwhelming project outcomes, noting the challenges of establishing herself as a newcomer in competitive regional industries. Bhatia has recounted personal difficulties during these formative years, including an instance early in her South Indian career where she was replaced from a film after declining to perform a scene she found uncomfortable, an action influenced by a prominent male co-star's involvement. Starting as a teenager, she navigated industry pressures, including discomfort with certain demands, while balancing multiple language debuts and frequent auditions, which underscored the trial-and-error nature of her initial trajectory before gaining traction in films like the Tamil action entertainer Ayan (2009) and Paiyaa (2010). These experiences highlighted the causal hurdles of youth, limited bargaining power, and selective role choices in sustaining momentum.

Breakthrough roles (2011–2014)

In 2011, Tamannaah Bhatia featured in several films that elevated her visibility in South Indian cinema. She played Priya in the Tamil action-comedy Siruthai, released on 14 January, which achieved commercial success as a Pongal release with strong audience appeal through its blend of action, romance, and comedy. In Telugu cinema, her role as Mahalakshmi in the romantic comedy 100% Love, opposite Naga Chaitanya and released on 6 May, marked a significant hit, opening to ₹8.5 crore and ranking among the year's highest-grossing Telugu films due to its engaging ego-driven love story and energetic performances. Later that year, she appeared in Oosaravelli (October release) opposite Jr. NTR and Badrinath (June release) opposite N. T. Rama Rao Jr., both contributing to her growing presence in mass-oriented Telugu projects, though with varying critical reception. The year 2012 solidified her breakthrough with back-to-back commercial successes in Telugu films. In Racha, released on 5 April opposite Ram Charan, Bhatia portrayed Chaitra, a medical student entangled in a gambler's bet, delivering a substantial role that was commended for its emotional depth amid the film's high-stakes action narrative; the movie registered strong openings, amassing ₹15 crore in its initial days and emerging as a major box-office earner. Her performance as Ganga in Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu, released in October opposite Pawan Kalyan, further reinforced her appeal in rural entertainer formats, with the film achieving profitability through its blend of action and drama. By 2013–2014, Bhatia expanded into Hindi remakes and Tamil mass films, diversifying her career trajectory. She starred as Sapna in the Hindi remake Himmatwala (24 April 2013) opposite Ajay Devgn, a nostalgic update of the 1983 original that drew audiences for its song-and-dance sequences despite mixed reviews on execution. In Telugu, Tadakha (March 2013) opposite Sunil showcased her in an action-oriented sibling rivalry story, registering as a box-office hit. Her role as Kopperundevi in the Tamil action-drama Veeram, released on 10 January 2014 opposite Ajith Kumar, propelled the Pongal release to blockbuster status, surpassing ₹45 crore in collections through robust family-entertainer elements and regional dominance. These roles collectively transitioned Bhatia from supporting parts to lead heroine status, emphasizing her versatility in romantic, glamorous, and action-driven narratives across Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi industries.

Pan-India success and Baahubali (2015–2019)

Tamannaah Bhatia portrayed the character of Avantika, a fierce warrior and rebel leader, in Baahubali: The Beginning, directed by S. S. Rajamouli and released on 10 July 2015. The film, primarily in Telugu with dubs in Tamil, Hindi, and other languages, achieved pan-India commercial success, collecting approximately ₹515.77 crore net in India across versions. Bhatia's role demanded physical training for combat sequences, marking a departure from her earlier glamorous parts and earning praise for her action-oriented performance amid the film's epic scale. The movie's nationwide appeal, particularly its Hindi version's strong Hindi-belt earnings, elevated Bhatia's visibility beyond South Indian cinema, positioning her as a recognizable face in the broader Indian market. The success of Baahubali: The Beginning served as a career turning point for Bhatia, introducing the concept of pan-India films and expanding her fanbase across linguistic divides, though she later noted industry tendencies to attribute action credit more to male leads like Prabhas. Following this, Bhatia appeared in Tutak Tutak Tutiya (2016), a Hindi-Telugu bilingual horror-comedy that underperformed commercially. She reprised Avantika in Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, released on 28 April 2017, which shattered records by netting over ₹1,030 crore in India and establishing new benchmarks for Indian cinema's box-office potential. The sequel's unprecedented Hindi earnings—over ₹500 crore net—further solidified Bhatia's pan-India stature, with her warrior role contributing to the film's narrative of rebellion and romance. In the later years of the period, Bhatia diversified within South Indian films while leveraging Baahubali's momentum. Her 2019 Telugu comedy F2: Fun and Frustration emerged as one of the year's top-grossing Telugu releases, reinforcing her commercial viability in regional markets with national crossover. Bhatia has reflected that the Baahubali franchise's scale created challenges in surpassing its impact, prompting her to seek varied roles to avoid typecasting, though it undeniably broadened her appeal from Telugu-Tamil roots to a unified Indian audience. Other ventures like Khaamoshi (2019), a low-budget horror film, failed at the box office with mere ₹42 lakh nett, highlighting selective project choices amid her rising profile. Overall, the Baahubali series catalyzed Bhatia's transition to pan-India recognition, with its combined worldwide gross exceeding ₹2,400 crore underscoring the era's shift toward multilingual blockbusters.

Diversification into OTT and recent films (2020–present)

Bhatia entered the over-the-top (OTT) space in 2022 with the lead role of matchmaker Pragya in the Netflix romantic comedy Plan A Plan B, opposite Riteish Deshmukh, which premiered on September 30. The film depicted conflicting professionals developing an attraction amid professional rivalry. In 2023, she appeared in the Netflix anthology Lust Stories 2, portraying Shanti in Konkona Sen Sharma's segment, where her character rekindled a past relationship with an ex-lover played by Vijay Varma, exploring themes of lust and reconciliation. That same year, Bhatia starred as Lavanya in the Prime Video series Jee Karda, a romantic drama following seven childhood friends confronting adult life's challenges, released globally on June 15. Her OTT presence continued into 2025 with Do You Wanna Partner, a Prime Video comedy-drama series co-starring Diana Penty, premiering on September 12 and centering on two women's entrepreneurial journeys in business partnerships. Parallel to OTT ventures, Bhatia sustained her theatrical career in regional cinema, including the Telugu action comedy Sarileru Neekevvaru released on January 11, 2020, and the Telugu film Bholaa Shankar in 2023. She made a special appearance as Raashi in the 2024 Hindi action thriller Vedaa. Upcoming releases include the Hindi action film Raid 2 on May 1, 2025, and Sikandar Ka Muqaddar released on November 29, 2024.

Controversies and criticisms

Baahubali scene debate

In Baahubali: The Beginning (2015), Tamannaah Bhatia portrayed Avantika, a fierce warrior rebel, whose introduction and a subsequent romantic sequence with Prabhas's character Shiva drew significant criticism for alleged objectification and non-consensual elements. The sequence depicts Shiva pursuing Avantika after she attempts to bind him; he escapes, engages in playful yet persistent advances, including tying her up and awakening her suppressed emotions, culminating in mutual attraction symbolized by her loosening her hair. Critics, including some film reviewers and online commentators, labeled it the "Rape of Avantika," arguing it portrayed coercion as romance, undermined her agency as a strong female character, and reinforced misogynistic tropes by prioritizing male dominance over consent. The debate resurfaced in August 2025 when Bhatia addressed it in interviews, rejecting the rape interpretation and describing the scene as Avantika's "self-discovery" and "emotional rediscovery" of femininity long suppressed by her warrior duties and mission-driven life. She emphasized that director S.S. Rajamouli intended to show love as a transformative force revealing vulnerability, not force or assault, stating, "She was finding herself through a man," and critiquing modern viewers for projecting contemporary shame narratives onto artistic choices. Bhatia further defended the portrayal against objectification claims, noting that such sequences reflect the "process" of human connection and that criticism often overlooks the character's voluntary reciprocation, as evidenced by her active participation post-awakening. Rajamouli had previously clarified in 2024 that the scene avoided explicit non-consent, framing it as Shiva intuitively sensing and unlocking Avantika's latent romantic desires, akin to mythological epics where passion overrides initial resistance without implying violation. Public discourse highlighted divides: supporters viewed it as culturally resonant storytelling in a pan-Indian blockbuster that grossed over ₹1,800 crore worldwide, prioritizing narrative symbolism over literal realism, while detractors, often from urban progressive circles, saw it as emblematic of Bollywood/Tollywood's regressive gender dynamics. No legal or formal complaints arose at release, with the film's acclaim—including six National Film Awards—suggesting broader acceptance of its stylistic liberties.

Objectification and external comments

Tamannaah Bhatia has faced scrutiny for her participation in item songs, with critics arguing that such roles contribute to the objectification of women by prioritizing visual appeal over narrative depth. A Deccan Chronicle analysis in October 2025 highlighted concerns that her recent special appearances, including the anticipated but excluded "Ghafoor" in the series The Ba**ds of Bollywood*, risk overshadowing her acting credentials with emphasis on glamour. Similarly, online discussions, such as Reddit threads from April 2025, have described her item songs as repetitive and saturated, focusing on similar costumes and themes that reduce her to physical display rather than artistic contribution. External comments on Bhatia's appearance have often veered into objectifying territory, drawing public backlash. In October 2025, veteran actor Annu Kapoor referred to her as having a "dudhiya badan" (milky body) while praising her performance in the Stree 2 song "Aaj Ki Raat," prompting widespread criticism on social media for lewdness and disrespect toward women in the industry. Actress Rakhi Sawant, in media interactions around October 19, 2025, accused Bhatia of resorting to item songs after failing as a lead heroine, claiming it lacked the authenticity of traditional item performers and represented a career pivot driven by necessity rather than choice. Such remarks, from figures known for provocative statements, underscore persistent industry tendencies to evaluate female actors primarily through physical attributes. Bhatia has actively countered objectification in public discourse. In a 2016 incident, she rebuked director Suraj Palav for suggesting actresses invite molestation through their clothing, asserting that performers exist to act and entertain without being treated as commodities. She has also addressed broader societal pressures, noting in interviews that compliments on her work frequently center on looks rather than talent, and shared experiences of body shaming, including a fan's remark post-"Kaavaalaa" in Jailer (2023) calling her previously "big and fat," which highlighted unrealistic beauty expectations she once internalized. These responses reflect her advocacy for evaluating women beyond appearance, though critics maintain that her role selections sometimes perpetuate the very dynamics she critiques.

Acting range and typecasting perceptions

Tamannaah Bhatia has frequently been perceived as typecast in glamorous, dance-centric roles that emphasize her visual appeal over dramatic depth, particularly in Telugu and Tamil cinema during the 2000s and early 2010s, where she often portrayed decorative "flowerpot" characters in mass entertainers. This perception stems from her early films like Siruthai (2011), where her role was criticized for lacking substance, contributing to a broader industry pattern of pigeonholing female leads into roles glorifying physical attributes amid toxic masculinity dynamics in South Indian filmmaking. Critics and observers, including actress Rakhi Sawant in 2025, have argued that Bhatia's shift toward item songs—such as in KGF: Chapter 1 (2018) and Hindi projects—signals a fallback when lead roles failed to sustain a heroine-centric career, reducing her to a performer of special numbers rather than a versatile actor. In Hindi cinema, this has led to concerns of stereotyping as the "glamour quotient," potentially flattening her range into repetitive sensual performances, as noted in analyses of her post-Baahubali trajectory. Bhatia has countered these views by actively seeking diverse roles to avoid typecasting, expressing in 2024 her commitment to breaking creative boxes across films and OTT platforms, where she has portrayed layered characters like the conflicted Lavanya in Jee Karda (2023), demonstrating comedic timing and emotional nuance. Supporters highlight her versatility in roles spanning teenagers, mothers, and warriors, as in Baahubali: The Beginning (2015) and Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy (2019), which challenged glam stereotypes through action-oriented performances, and credit her OTT work for reviving career depth beyond special songs. While some reviews, including on platforms like Quora, describe her acting as average after nearly two decades, with reliance on looks overshadowing skill, others defend her range as unfairly undervalued, pointing to early dubbing efforts in Tamil films and consistent box-office draw as evidence of broader talent. Bhatia has distanced herself from South Indian projects citing repetitive typecasting and discomfort with certain scenes, opting instead for Hindi and digital formats to explore ambitious, non-glam roles that unsettle traditional norms. This evolution reflects a deliberate pivot, though perceptions of limited range persist in glamour-dominated critiques from mainstream and social media sources.

Public image and influence

Media portrayal and brand endorsements

Tamannaah Bhatia is frequently depicted in Indian media as a pan-India actress known for her dance performances and transition from Telugu and Tamil cinema to Hindi films, with outlets emphasizing her visual appeal and commercial viability in item songs like "Kaavaalaa" and "Aaj Ki Raat." However, her public statements have drawn scrutiny, particularly in October 2025 when she defended a Baahubali scene involving stalking and violence as a portrayal of consensual sex, prompting criticism from commentators who accused her of conflating sexual violence with romance and exhibiting internalized misogyny. This response, given in an interview with The Lallantop, was characterized by critics as a mischaracterization of the sequence's symbolic representation of consent violation, shifting focus from the film's content to Bhatia's personal defense. Bhatia has addressed media and social media negativity, noting in 2023 that she experienced unprecedented online hate and trolling for the first time, often involving moral policing over her personal choices and appearances. She has countered public perceptions by rejecting narratives around sexism, gender pay gaps, and overtime work, as highlighted in a May 2025 social media post reacting to algorithmic glitches liking unrelated pages. Earlier, in 2016, media praised her for publicly challenging sexist remarks from director Suraj, who commented on her body during a promotion, positioning her as resistant to industry objectification. Bhatia has also discussed the pressure of public scrutiny on relationships and cosmetic procedures, urging restraint in speculative reporting on link-ups and body alterations in August 2025 interviews. Bhatia's endorsement portfolio spans beverages, cosmetics, wellness, and gaming, with over a dozen brands as of 2025, reflecting her marketability across regional and national audiences. She served as the face of Fanta in Tamil Nadu starting around 2010, targeting youth with vibrant campaigns. Subsequent deals include Patanjali wellness products, Sugar Cosmetics for makeup, VLCC for beauty treatments, and Rummy Circle for online gaming. In 2023, she became the first Indian ambassador for Japanese cosmetics brand Shiseido, expanding to international luxury, and endorsed Vanesa's skincare range. Other associations feature Cellecor Gadgets, Diataal supplements, and Havmor Ice Cream. A notable 2025 endorsement was her appointment as brand ambassador for Karnataka Soaps and Detergents Limited's Mysore Sandal Soap on May 22, a ₹6.2 crore deal by the state government to revive the heritage brand, which faced immediate backlash from pro-Kannada activists protesting her non-Karnataka origins and perceived cultural disconnect. In the Kroll Celebrity Brand Valuation 2024, Bhatia ranked 21st with a brand value of $40.4 million, underscoring her endorsement influence amid rising pan-India stardom.

Fitness, dance, and cultural impact

Tamannaah Bhatia adheres to a disciplined fitness regimen characterized by early morning workouts starting at 4:30 AM, followed by extended workdays of 8 to 12 hours without daytime naps. Her routine incorporates weight training, cardio, group exercises, and functional movements like single-hand dumbbell thrusters and squats, performed consistently even during international travel such as in Spain. She prioritizes regularity, balanced nutrition, hydration, and deriving enjoyment from exercise to sustain long-term adherence.
Bhatia excels in dance, particularly through high-energy item song performances that showcase her precision, grace, and stamina. Her breakthrough in this domain came with "Labbar Bomma" from the 2014 Telugu film Alludu Seenu, followed by notable sequences like "Swing Zara," where she executed bold, synchronized moves that amplified the song's appeal. Recent hits including "Kaavaalaa," "Aaj Ki Raat" from Stree 2 (2024), and "Nasha" from Raid 2 (2025) have solidified her reputation, with choreography blending contemporary flair and traditional elements like saree draping to engage audiences. Bhatia's cultural influence extends to fashion and cinematic representation, where she leverages personal style for self-expression and identity affirmation, crediting it with alleviating early career insecurities. In interviews, she contrasts South Indian cinema's emphasis on culturally embedded narratives—drawing from regional traditions and human fundamentals—with Bollywood's broader, less localized storytelling, attributing the former's global traction to this authenticity. Her dance-heavy roles and endorsements have popularized hybrid fitness-dance trends among younger demographics, fostering interest in disciplined physicality within Indian pop culture. In interviews, Bhatia has advocated for body positivity and self-acceptance, embracing her individuality rather than conforming to societal beauty standards. She has described an intuitive approach to self-care, prioritizing well-being, reflection, and rest. Bhatia has addressed overcoming industry sexism by asserting her contributions and valuing authenticity, while expressing passion for meaningful storytelling.

Accolades

Tamannaah Bhatia has received multiple awards recognizing her contributions to Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi cinema, with a focus on performances in commercially successful films. She holds two Filmfare Awards South for Best Actress in Telugu (2011, Happy Days) and Tamil (2016, Dharmadurai). In 2010, she was conferred the Kalaimamani Award by the Government of Tamil Nadu for excellence in arts and culture. Other significant honors include the SIIMA Critics Award for Best Actress – Telugu (2015, Baahubali: The Beginning) and two Santosham Film Awards for Best Actress (2011, Happy Days; 2021). She also won the Edison Award for Best Actress (2016, Dharmadurai) and received a special SIIMA honor in 2024 for 20 years in the industry.

Other works

Television, web series, and endorsements

Bhatia entered the digital streaming space with the Telugu-language thriller series 11th Hour (2021) on the Aha platform, where she portrayed Aratrika Reddy, the chairwoman of a conglomerate embroiled in a high-stakes corporate intrigue unfolding over one night. That year, she also starred in the Tamil murder mystery November Story on Disney+ Hotstar, playing Anu, an ethical hacker racing to exonerate her Alzheimer's-afflicted father, a renowned crime novelist, from a homicide accusation; critics noted its slow-burn tension despite a faltering conclusion. In 2023, Bhatia appeared as Lavanya in the Hindi romantic drama Jee Karda on Amazon Prime Video, depicting the complexities of friendships and relationships among seven childhood friends; her role garnered recognition, including the Best Actor of the Year - Female award at an industry event. She followed this in 2025 with the lead in Do You Wanna Partner, a Hindi comedy-drama on Prime Video co-starring Diana Penty, which follows two determined women navigating entrepreneurial challenges in a male-dominated business landscape. Bhatia has secured endorsements with over a dozen brands, reflecting her versatility across consumer goods, beauty, and technology sectors. In October 2023, she became the first Indian ambassador for the Japanese cosmetics firm Shiseido, expanding her portfolio internationally. By January 2024, she aligned with Cellecor Gadgets as a brand ambassador. Other notable partnerships include Fanta, Patanjali, Sugar Cosmetics, VLCC, and Rummy Circle. In May 2025, Karnataka Soaps and Detergents Limited appointed her ambassador for Mysore Sandal Soap in a ₹6.2 crore agreement, prompting criticism from pro-Kannada activists who questioned the selection of a non-local celebrity for the heritage product. Her endorsement deals contributed to a brand valuation ranking of 21st among Indian celebrities in 2024, with an estimated value of ₹40.4 crore.
