D'Cruz made her screen debut in 2006 with the Telugu-language film Devadasu, a commercial success, which won her the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut - South.[1]

D'Cruz established herself as a leading actress in Telugu cinema with successful films including Pokiri (2006), Rakhi (2006), Munna (2007), Jalsa (2008), Kick (2009) and Julayi (2012).

Her first modelling portfolio was created in January 2003, and D'Cruz called it a "disaster". Subsequent photo shoots and ramp shows led to a second portfolio the following year, which landed her advertisements from Electrolux, Emami Talc and Fair & Lovely. The latter, in particular, which was directed by Rakesh Roshan, gave her exposure and brought in several offers for acting in feature films.[11]

D'Cruz acquired Portuguese nationality in 2014.[12] In an interview with Verve in 2017, she claimed that Portugal was a part of her ancestry.[13]

She was in a relationship with Australian photographer Andrew Kneebone. It was rumoured that they had already married.[14] On 28 August 2019, Indian media aired the news that the couple had broken up.[15]

S. Chowdary. She underwent acting classes with Aruna Bhikshu, before starting to work on the film. She recalls that during filming she felt "pressured ... almost cried and didn't want to go further", but went ahead after her mother encouraged her, giving her "the lecture of a lifetime [...] at 3 am."[18] A review from Indiaglitz stated that she "has chiseled features and a figure to die-for."[19] Devadasu became the year's first commercially successful Telugu film, eventually grossing around ₹140 million,[20] whilst earning D'Cruz the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debutant.[21] She next appeared in the gangster film Pokiri in which she portrayed an aerobics teacher, who is harassed by a corrupt police officer.[22] The film was a high financial success, emerging as the highest-grossing Telugu film at the time.[23]
