By working across varied roles, films in several languages and new media, she has made a place for herself in the industry.

Dutta began with Femina Miss India 2012, where she was a finalist. After the contest she turned to acting. She entered the entertainment world with the film 'Lekar Hum Deewana Dil'. Always on the lookout for different opportunities, she soon found the doors to several big projects opening.

A key milestone in her Bollywood journey was the film 'Gold', which gave her the chance to work with Akshay Kumar. She then played Jia Sharma in Shahid Kapoor's superhit 'Kabir Singh', a role for which audiences particularly remember her.

Dutta has not confined herself to Hindi films. In 2024 she entered the Marathi film industry with 'Gharat Ganpati', a film from a different language and cultural background, adding another new chapter to her career.

Her journey is now at a new turn. She will be seen in 'Nazdeekiyan', an upcoming Amazon Prime Video series made by Karan Johar's Dharmatic Entertainment. She will also appear in the project 'Gul Gule Bakawali'. Fans are watching these upcoming works closely.

Dutta's career has been one of proving herself afresh again and again. Without being tied to one circle, she has taken up different roles and mediums and built a distinct identity. On her birthday, she is receiving wishes from fans and the entertainment industry.
