Balancing theatre and film

After a two-year hiatus, she faced the arc lights yet again in director Vijay Milton's recently-released, Kadugu.

Actress Radhika Prasidhha was lauded for her realistic portrayal of a teacher in the award-winning film Kuttram Kadithal, directed by Bramma. After a two-year hiatus, she faced the arc lights yet again in director Vijay Milton’s
recently-released, Kadugu.

Speaking to DC, Radhika says, “The response for my performance in Kadugu is overwhelming. One memorable compliment I received is from a college professor, who wrote a long letter about my acting and how he could relate to it. It feels good to be part of a film, where all characters are recognised equally. I will always cherish the experience of working in the movie.

The Kuttram Kadithal actress wants to find a balance between theatre and mainstream films. “I don’t think I can leave the theatre for films, which is why I have acted only in two Tamil films so far. It’s hard to balance both,” she explains.
Radhika is all set to go on a tour to Paris, where her theatre troupe Indianostrum has been invited to stage three plays. “The French theatre group Theatre Du Soleil wanted us to perform three plays — Kunti Karna, Land of Ashes (a drama on the plight of war and refugees) and Karuppu (a dance drama). I will be part of these three plays, directed by Koumarane Vallavane,” she concludes.
