She had her first major success with the supernatural thriller Raaz (2002), which earned Basu her first Filmfare Award for Best Actress nomination.[4][5] The following year, she starred opposite John Abraham in the erotic thriller Jism, in which she played a seductive wife.[6] She received a Filmfare Award for Best Performance in a Negative Role nomination for the film.[7][8] Her roles in these films established her as a sex symbol. [9] Basu followed this initial success with roles in a series of commercial failures, including the thrillers Aetbaar, Rudraksh, Rakht—all in 2004—and the romance Barsaat (2005).[3][9] She later featured in Prakash Jha's crime drama Apaharan (2005) and the ensemble comedy No Entry (2005).

In 2013, Basu made her Hollywood debut with the historical romance The Lovers, in which she played a Maratha warrior. The following year, she starred in the comedy Humshakals. The film received largely negative reviews, though it was a moderate commercial success.[17] In 2015, she played conjoined twins—a first for an actress in Bollywood—in the horror film Alone.[18][19] She followed it by featuring as the host of the television horror series Darr Sabko Lagta Hai that year.[20]
