Patil made her film debut with Shyam Benegal's Charandas Chor (1975).[8][9] She became one of the leading actresses of parallel cinema, a New Wave movement in India cinema, though she also appeared in several mainstream movies throughout her career.[4] Her performances were highly acclaimed, and her most notable roles include Manthan (1977),[9] Bhumika (1977) for which she won her first National Film Award for Best Actress,[1][9] Jait Re Jait (1978), Aakrosh (1980), Chakra (1981) which earned her a second National Film Award for Best Actress and her first and only Filmfare Award for Best Actress, Namak Halaal (1982), Bazaar (1982), Umbartha (1982), Shakti (1982), Arth (1982), Ardh Satya (1983), Mandi (1983), Aaj Ki Awaaz (1984), Chidambaram (1985), Mirch Masala (1985), Amrit (1986) and Waaris (1988).[1][4]

Apart from acting, Patil was an active feminist and a member of the Women's Centre in Mumbai. She was deeply committed to the advancement of women's issues and gave her endorsement to films which sought to explore the role of women in traditional Indian society, their sexuality, and the changes facing the middle-class woman in an urban milieu.[10] She died on 13 December 1986 at the age of 31 due to childbirth complications. Over ten of her films were released after her death.[11][12]
