Radha Ravi

Item song dancers like Silk Smitha and Jayamalini have become irrelevant. The heroines are doing those dances themselves.

Good looks may be enough for a heroine, but to become an artiste, you need at least a working knowledge of the language.

I've been a character artiste for four decades, and in our job, we learn very early that it doesn't pay to be narcissistic.

There is nothing wrong with Radha Ravi calling women to his office. There's nothing wrong if a man calls women to his office. There is something wrong if a man calls men to his office.

All these years, people have spoken good and bad things about me, but I always end up being discussed.

Theatre owners cannot threaten actors with defamation cases and take them to court or seek compensation for losses incurred.

Maybe actors are more passionate about cinema than actresses. Many heroines today seem unable to look beyond glamour.

For me, the character I play is most important.
