Miss Uttarakhand 2009, Asha had made her acting debut with the TV serial, Sapnon Se Bhare Naina in 2010. Almost a decade later, she made her digital debut with Baarish in 2019, followed by another show, Abhay 2 in 2020. Asha also made her film debut with Anurag Basu’s Ludo.

In an interview with Pinkvilla, Asha Negi recalled the time when her two shows didn’t work consecutively and she was so much disheartened that she suffered from depression. Asha believed at that time that her career was over but it was her estranged beau, Rithvik Dhanjani, who helped her come out of it. Asha remarked, “I used to eat a lot due to which I had gained a lot of weight. But thank god I was surrounded by good people including Rithvik Dhanjani who helped me come out of it. He guided me through all the ups and down.”

Speaking about how she suffered depression and the emotional turmoil she went through during that time, Asha Negi said, "Emotions did ride high when the two shows didn't work. When the first show did not work, I was like 'it is okay, maybe I have had a good career in the past, so one not working is okay.' But then the next also did not work and I was really disheartened. I was so demotivated. I thought it is over for me. I was very depressed at that time. I had also put on weight because I was eating so much because of depression. It did hamper my mental peace and confidence." (Also Read: Jasprit Bumrah Grooves With Wife, Sanjana Ganesan On Sangeet, Their Mehendi And Haldi Photos Are Out)

Revealing how she had healed and the reason behind taking a long break, Asha Negi continued about her struggle and her evolution as an actor and as a person. She said, "I let it happen and went through that feeling. With time, I healed and realised that I am an actor and here to perform and it is okay if my projects did not work, but I can be a little selective with my projects. I won't pick up any project for the heck of it. That's why I took a long break because nothing good was offered to me. I am glad it happened. You know, when I had to come to Mumbai, I got projects back to back without much struggle despite my inexperience. I did not see struggle then, so, I feel this is when I struggled. I collected myself then, and with time, I evolved as an actor and person."
