Following her film debut, Ashu expanded into television and reality programming. In 2019 she took part in Bigg Boss Telugu season 3, where she was evicted in the fifth week.

Public profile

Ashu is known for an outspoken public presence. She has described herself as a beauty content activist and cultivated a following through both social media and television. Fans and media have compared her appearance to that of actress Samantha Prabhu, a similarity that earned Ashu the nickname Junior Samantha among some audiences. She has performed as a side dancer alongside Samantha in the song Oo Antava.

Ashu is a visible fan of actor Pawan Kalyan: she has met him on more than one occasion, wrote him a get-well letter when he tested positive for COVID-19, and has a tattoo of his name. She is also an animal lover and keeps a pet dog named Raju.

Public controversies

Ashu has been involved in attention-grabbing media moments. A widely discussed interview with filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma generated controversy for frank discussion of taboo topics; during that interaction she slapped RGV in response to an inappropriate remark, an action that was later described as a staged humorous moment. Social media reactions have also focused on other personal footage she shared.
