Written and directed by Meet Bros, the singer, Aditi Singh Sharma lent her voice.[10]

Patani during promotion of M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story in 2017

Patani found her commercial break with Neeraj Pandey's M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story, a biographical sports film based on the life story of MS Dhoni, the former captain of the Indian Cricket Team along with Sushant Singh Rajput and Kiara Advani.[11] She played the role of Priyanka Jha, the girlfriend of MS Dhoni's character who dies in a car accident. Directed by Neeraj Pandey and produced by Fox Star Studios, the film was released on 30 September 2016 and was a massive hit with an estimated collections of ₹216 crore (US$26 million).[12] Taran Adarsh from Bollywood Hungama and Shubhra Gupta from The Indian Express both opined that Patani "sparkle" in her debut film.[13][14] At the 18th IIFA Awards, she won the Star Debut of the Year Female. In addition, she also starred in Jackie Chan's Kung Fu Yoga, along with Sonu Sood.[15]

Patani then acted in Baaghi 2 along with Tiger Shroff, a sequel to the 2016 film Baaghi starring Tiger Shroff and Shraddha Kapoor and the second instalment of the Baaghi franchise. Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and directed by Ahmed Khan, Baaghi 2 was released on 30 March 2018 to mixed reviews from critics with praise for its action sequences. Saibal Chatterjee from NDTV wrote, "Patani is a pretty sight all right but is only required to sleepwalk through her role".[16] The film grossed approximately ₹258 crore (US$31 million) worldwide to become one of the highest-grossing Hindi film of 2018.[17][18][19]

Although the film had strong viewership on OTT, it received highly negative reviews from critics and audiences alike, who criticised the story, screenplay, direction and VFX and even she received backlash for her unimportant character.[26] In 2022, Patani played a retail salesgirl in Mohit Suri's psychological thriller Ek Villain Returns alongside John Abraham, Tara Sutaria and Arjun Kapoor.[27] The film opened to mixed reviews from critics but was a box office debacle.[28] Sukanya Vema of Rediff wrote "Ek Villain Returns falls back on the popularity of the Galliyan track to boost its appeal".[29]

After a year absence, Patani played a terrorist disguised as an air hostess in the Sidharth Malhotra starrer Yodha (2024), which was too a delayed release.[30][31] Pratikshya Mishra of The Quint termed Patani a "potential action star", while praising her fight sequence, but added that her dialogues fail to make an impact.[32] Still, the film underperformed commercially.

Patani saw a success with the Telugu film Kalki 2898 AD where she was paired with Prabhas. Her character Roxie is a worker in the Complex who takes Bhairava inside for the first time. The film was a large box-office success, Patani's first since 2020.[33] She is expected to have two more releases in 2024. First is her Tamil debut film Kanguva alongside Suriya, which is expected to be a "big-budget period epic".[34] She will also appear in the ensemble comedy sequel Welcome to the Jungle.[35]
