Anjli is known for her pivotal role as Nadia in BAFTA & Golden Globe winning BBC drama ‘Bodyguard’. She also starred in the 2021 Emmy winning BBC drama ‘Vigil’ opposite Suranne Jones & Martin Compston, playing Lt Tiffany Docherty, the doctor on board a nuclear submarine which becomes the subject of a murder investigation. 

2025 sees her re-united with Compston in 3-part Amazon Prime thriller 'Fear', in which they play a married couple who move to their dream house in Glasgow, only for things to fall apart when their creepy neighbour starts making shocking allegations. 

In 2024 she led the cast in Alibi's chilling crime drama series 'The Red King', playing ostracised police sergeant Grace, who takes on the unsolved case of a missing teenager when she is posted to a remote Welsh island. The show was produced by the team behind Happy Valley. 2024 also saw her in 'Get Millie Black', an "exemplary" (The Guardian) HBO crime drama series set in Jamaica, which aired in the UK on Channel 4 in 2025. 

Also in 2024 she was commended for her "masterful" performance as one of a 5-strong all-star female cast in play 'The Years' at London's Almeida Theatre, based on the critically acclaimed novel by Nobel Prize winning author Annie Ernaux. The "riveting and profound" play was a ★★★★★ sell-out, named by The Guardian as the Best Theatre Show of 2024, and was transferred to the West End's Harold Pinter Theatre in 2025.  The play has recently been nominated for Best New Play in the 2025 Olivier Awards.

She had a leading role as the mysterious Archie, in Sky's sci-fi action thriller ‘The Lazarus Project’ by BAFTA award winning writer Joe Barton, also starring Paapa Essiedu, Caroline Quentin and Tom Burke. The show ran for 2 seasons, in 2022 and 2023. 

In 2022 she starred as DS Riya Devi, one of the lead detectives investigating the murder of a young woman in ITV's 'The Suspect' adapted from the novel by Michael Robotham, starring opposite Aidan Turner and Shaun Parkes. She also played Beatrice in Amazon Prime's blockbuster sci-fi drama series 'The Peripheral', based on the dystopian novel by William Gibson, from the creators of Westworld. 

Also in 2022 she starred in the Netflix period thriller 'Munich The Edge of War' in which she plays a British diplomatic secretary embroiled in the negotiations at the 1938 Munich conference. 

She had leading roles in ITV crime drama ‘Dark Heart’ and in ‘Wild Bill’ (also ITV) opposite Rob Lowe. She has had roles in the 12th series of ‘Doctor Who’ (2020), ‘Cucumber’ on Channel 4 and the BAFTA nominated movie ‘The Boy with the Topknot’.  She is also recognisable from her role playing Rani Chandra in the Doctor Who CBBC spin-off 'The Sarah-Jane Adventures', in which she played Sarah-Jane's protege for 4 series from 2008-2011.  She has recently reprised the role for a series of audio dramas centred around her character. 'Rani Takes on the World' was released in 2023. 

She is the voice of Mayor Sunita in CBeebies animated pre-schoolers series 'Mojo Swoptops', which launched in 2024. 

In May 2020, Mohindra wrote "People Under the Moon", a short film set during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.

Her native accent is British/East Midlands/Nottingham. She is fluent in both Punjabi and Hindi which she speaks regularly. She can also do an excellent Pakistani accent (as used in ‘Bodyguard’).
