After pursuing a degree in mass communication from the University of Sydney in Australia, she worked as a television reporter in Sri Lanka. In 2006, she was crowned as the winner of the Miss Universe Sri Lanka pageant and represented Sri Lanka at 2006 Miss Universe pageant in Los Angeles.

Jacqueline Fernandez made her acting debut with Bollywood film Aladin in 2009 and has starred in around 20 movies in her career spanning 10 years. She has worked with popular Bollywood actors like Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Ranbir Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, John Abraham, Varun Dhawan, Tiger Shroff and Siddharth Malhotra.
