After VR1, Veronica joined ePark / Urbanstar and released the single "Girls Gotta Have Fun". Veronica has recorded a few tracks with her new management record company 2Point9, "Indian Girl" featuring Hard Kaur, and "U 'n' I (Mere Dil Vich Hai)", from the Yash Chopra film '' Hum Tum''. Some of her biggest tracks.

Veronica's first album, ''Theen'', was released in 2005. "Hey Ya" (featuring Juggy D) was the only single released from the album. In 2006, Veronica won "Best Female Act" at the UK Asian Music Awards. After almost a 3-year gap, she released her third single "Soniya". Veronica released her second album, ''Rush'', in 2010.
