She then went on to appear in blockbusters like Pokiri (2006), Jalsa (2008), Kick (2009), and Julayi (2012), establishing herself as one of Tollywood's leading actresses.[3] D'Cruz made her Kollywood debut earlier in 2006 with Kedi and made a comeback in Shankar's Nanban (2012).[4] In 2012, she made her Bollywood debut with Anurag Basu's critically and commercially successful Barfi!, for which she received critical appreciation and the Filmfare Best Female Debut Award.[5]

During that time, the manager of the hotel her mother was working in, suggested that she has a beautiful face with a vibrant smile and should start modelling and fixed a meeting with Marc Robinson. Though initially reluctant, she was persuaded and her first portfolio was created in January 2003, which she described as a "disaster". She began gaining notice through photo shoots and ramp shows and her second portfolio was set up the following year, which landed her three advertisements from Electrolux, Emami Talc and Fair and Lovely. The latter, in particular, which was directed by Rakesh Roshan, gave her exposure and brought in several offers for acting in feature films.[10][11]
D'Cruz's career took a turn for the better with the release of her well-received 2007 film Aata, opposite Siddharth.[20] She received favorable reviews for her performance as Satya, a college student who is on the run from the home minister's crooked son by whom she is targeted, when leading a protest and demanding punishment for his crimes.[24] Idlebrain described her as "gorgeous" and a "treat to watch to the eyes".[25] In 2008, she performed the female lead role opposite Pawan Kalyan in the action film Jalsa, directed by Trivikram Srinivas. In spite of opening to mixed reviews, the film turned out to become a financial success. Ileana received largely positive remarks, with critics citing that she looked "pretty",[26] "damn cool",[27] and "every bit chic and stunning throughout the film",[28] while being later awarded the Santosham Award, one of five awards for Jalsa,[29] and the South Scope Style Award,[30] besides garnering a nomination for the Best Actress prize at the 56th Filmfare Awards South. Her first 2009 release, titled Kick, opposite Ravi Teja for the second time in her career, was likewise declared a box office success,[31][32] becoming one of the highest-grossing films that year.[33]
Later that year she starred in the films Rechipo and Y. V. S. Choudary's Saleem alongside Vishnu Manchu, both of which performed poorly at the box office.[34][35]
D'Cruz had 2 releases in 2011. Her first film that year was Shakti, where she essayed the lead female role opposite Jr. NTR, with whom she worked earlier in Rakhi. She gave a stage performance for this movie's audio release function along with Jr. NTR, as part as promotion of the film. The socio-fantasy film, the costliest Telugu film ever made at 45,00,00,000,[36] was panned by critics and became a commercial failure. Her next release was Nenu Naa Rakshasi, which marked her second collaboration with Puri Jagannadh, following the success of Pokiri. Though the film was a failure, her performance was received positively by critics; an Indiaglitz reviewer described her as a "pleasant surprise in the film" as she "cried, smirked, looked hot, grabbed sympathy and made faces that were apt to the scenes",[37] while cinegoer's reviewer cited that the film had "one bright spot, Ileana, she looks stunning and also like an accomplished senior to the hero."[38] Despite her recent failures, D'Cruz continued to be the highest paid actress in South India
