Director Sabbir Khan selected Agerwal from over 300 candidates for the film, alongside Tiger Shroff. During the film's production, she adhered to a no-dating clause until completion.

That year, she also featured in music videos like 'Unglich Ring Daal De" by Jyotica Tangri and 'AAHO! Mittran Di Yes Hai" with Badshah. In 2021, Agerwal's Tamil debut Eeswaran, opposite Silambarasan, met with average reviews. Later that year, she appeared in Bhoomi alongside Jayam Ravi, which was poorly received. She also featured in a recreation of Altaf Raja's 'Saath Kya Nibhaoge" song with Sonu Sood. Her 2022 film Hero, with debutant Ashok Galla, garnered mixed reactions. Conversely, Kalaga Thalaivan, an action thriller directed by Magizh Thirumeni and starring Udhayanidhi Stalin and Agerwal, received positive critical acclaim.
