In 2012, Rachita auditioned for a lead role in Bulbul with 200 other women before she was selected.

S. Kumar of The Times of India wrote, "Rachita Ram has presented an excellent performance in her first movie" and added, "Rachita Ram is amazing with her dialogue delivery, body language and excellent expressions."[5] Her first release of 2014 was Dil Rangeela, in which she was paired opposite Ganesh. B. S. Srivani of Deccan Herald felt that she "delivers a seasoned performance" in the film.[6] Her second release of the year saw her paired opposite Darshan again in Ambareesha.
