Jha's acting performances in the series - Jyoti, Rakt Sambandh, Dil Se Di Dua... Saubhagyavati Bhava? and Kumkum Bhagya, established her among the leading and highest-paid actresses of the Hindi television. Jha is widely known for her style and fashion sense.

For her performance as Pragya in Kumkum Bhagya, The Indian Express placed her at fifth position in its "Top 10 television actresses" list of 2017. The Times of India noted Jha's different portrayals and appearances mainly in female-led shows and roles. Jha and Shabir Ahluwalia's pair was named among the "Best jodis of television" in 2014. Jha is a celebrity endorser for brands including, Accessorize India, Belleza, and Kalki Fashion and Nupur Henna.

In January 2021, Jha recited a poem, "Confessions Of An Asexual Romantic", during the 2020 Kommune India Spoken Fest, in which she spoke about how the life of an asexual might be and how there is a lack of freedom in India when it comes to talking about one's sexuality. In an interview, she clarified she is not an asexual and that the poem isn't about her. She also recited two more poems regarding people with different sexual preferences and the problems they face such as "Choodiyaan" which talks about a gay male, and "Chaabi Gum Gai Hai", based on a lesbian female. In "It's Pehla Pyaar Every Time", she talks about how every time we fall in love, it feels as if it's the first time.

Her other works, such as "To Like? Or To Love?" differentiate between loving and liking and how liking is free of boundaries while love is limiting. Jha's first open letter "A Letter To Myself" is about what she wants to tell her 15-year-old self in the past and that we should never compromise under any circumstance. In this collaboration with ITC Vivel, Jha inspires women to uncondition, challenge stereotypes and go forth to fulfill their dreams with confidence and say out loud, "Ab Samjhauta Nahin".
