Major filmmakers offered her starring roles in quality films, and she accepted them. She became a huge star in 1976 with major hit films. Director [[K.

Jaya Prada joined the [[Telugu Desam Party]] (TDP) in 1994 at the invitation of its founder [[N. T. Rama Rao]], on the eve of the assembly elections, and rose quickly through the ranks. At that time there was speculation that she would run for election, but she preferred not to make her electoral debut, although she was offered a seat by Rao.

Soon after the formation of the government, Chandrababu Naidu convinced a majority of the TDP MLAs to elect him as the chief minister and revolted against his father in law. Since most of the legislators had gone over to his side, the Anti Defection Law did not apply and the Telugu Desam Party label passed on to the Chandrababu Naidu faction. During this period, Prada too joined the Chandrababu Naidu faction of the party. She was nominated to the Rajya Sabha representing Andhra Pradesh in 1996. She also held the post of [[Telugu Mahila]] President. Jaya Pradha was considered instrumental in Chandrababu Naidu retaining the cycle as the symbol for the TDP.
Following differences with party Supremo N. Chandrababu Naidu, she left the TDP to join [[Samajwadi Party]]. She contested from Rampur parliamentary Constituency in UP during the 2004 General election and got elected with a margin of more than 85000 votes.
