Roy is part of the contemporary generation of performers active in the Bengali film and streaming sector, a regional industry historically centred on Tollygunge in Kolkata. The Bengali industry, often referred to as Tollywood, has a long tradition dating back to the early twentieth century and continues to produce theatrical films alongside original content for over-the-top (OTT) platforms.
Roy has worked in Bengali feature films and has also appeared in serialised digital productions made for streaming services that cater to Bengali-speaking audiences in India and abroad. Her work falls within the broader expansion of regional Indian entertainment onto OTT platforms during the late 2010s and early 2020s.
As a working actress in regional Indian cinema, Roy contributes to the ongoing output of the Bengali film industry, which remains one of India's older and culturally significant linguistic film traditions alongside Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada cinema.
