Radhika
Madan
rose
to
fame
as
Ishani
in
Color's
popular
show
Meri
Aashiqui
Tumse
Hi
which
aired
for
a
year
and
a
half.
However
instead
of
taking
up
another
daily
soap,
the
actress
made
her
transition
into
films
with
Vishal
Bharadwaj's
Pataakha
alongside
Sanya
Malhotra
in
2018.
In
a
recent
interview
with
Indian
Express,
Radhika
opened
up
on
her
switch
from
television
to
films
and
said
that
she
was
condemned
by
her
peers
when
she
decided
to
take
that
leap.
The
Mard
Ko
Dard
Nahi
Hota
actress
was
quoted
as
saying,
"When
I
was
transitioning,
web
series
were
just
starting
out.
The
only
thing
available
was
films
and
television,
and
I
was
condemned
by
my
peers
for
taking
that
leap.
My
show
was
doing
really
well
on
television
and
I
was
being
offered
a
lot
of
money.
But
I
consciously
made
that
decision
to
go
into
films.
Yes,
it
was
difficult
as
there
weren't
as
many
opportunities
that
time."
Sharing
why
she
decided
to
make
her
transition
to
films,
Radhika
recalled
an
instance
from
her
TV
show
set
when
her
director
refused
to
discuss
a
scene
with
her
post
packup.
Indian
Express
quoted
Radhika
as
saying,
"I
was
discussing
about
my
character
that
why
she
shouldn't
be
reacting
in
a
certain
way.
My
director
was
pacing
up
and
down,
looking
at
his
watch.
He
got
irritated
and
told
me
that
the
day
we
make
films,
we'll
discuss
a
scene
for
three
days,
but
not
right
now.
That
incident
stuck
with
me
so
much,
I
just
thought
to
myself,
will
I
get
the
luxury
of
discussing
a
scene
for
three
days?
That
was
my
only
motivation.
That
day
I
decided
I
want
to
get
into
films,
even
if
it
meant
starting
from
the
beginning."
Though
Radhika
has
bid
goodbye
to
the
world
of
television,
the
actress
admits
that
the
medium
has
made
her
emotionally
strong
and
prepared
her
for
the
worst.
"TV
prepares
you
for
the
worse.
You
shoot
for
48
hours
non-stop.
If
a
film
shoot
gets
extended,
they
apologise
to
you
and
you
feel
surprised.
Plus,
on
TV,
you
get
to
perform
so
many
emotions
in
a
span
of
one
year.
Even
if
there
is
a
monologue,
you
don't
get
thrown
off
easily," the
Ray
actress
told
the
news
portal.
Speaking
about
Radhika's
upcoming
projects,
the
actress
will
next
be
seen
in
Feels
Like
Ishq
and
Shiddat.
