Srushti Raghavendra her journey from being a model to an Actor
Srushti Raghavendra pauses our interview politely, sipping her beverage intermittently, she is one excellent Kannada young lady actor. When we connect, the Actor Srushti has thought about it in great depth. “I feel moved and chosen,” she begins, her voice sweet.
“I wasn’t expecting it at all, or thinking I should even be a candidate. It’s a pleasant surprise that people do see my work – or see how I engage with film to be inspiring, or sort of a depiction of what film could potentially be like in the future.”
The Srushti has been creating ripples in the fashion world with her exotic look and storied social life. She is known for her sense of style and loves to embody the characters she loves when it comes to getting dressed. Speaking about her passion she said on Lakkars Magazine, “Movies are such a big inspiration for me fashion-wise. I’ll watch a film and my style will take after the character that I’m obsessed with! If I watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s, all I’d wear for the next few days are black dresses and ballet flats.”
Actor Srushti Raghavendra, who gained stardom from the small screen, has aspiring actors to pursue opportunities regardless of the medium and said that one should never shy.
“Working in a film is a dream for every actor, and one should never shy away from starting their career in Ads. You never know when an opportunity might arise to transition from modeling to film,” Srushti said.
She has a beautiful look and an amazing body of work and is a huge fitness freak as well. She knows what it takes to keep her body in a lithe and lissome shape, and works hard to keep it looking that way. Srushiti looks that will take your breath away with the sheer beauty on display.
She added: “Indian cinema boasts a rich history of actors who have made successful leaps from ads to film.” Thus though approached by a lot of directors and producers, she is patient and choosy about taking on new work. She is focused and determined to climb to the pinnacle of success in due course of time, with the help of her patience, talent, and beauty.
“In this industry, no work is too small or insignificant. Whether it’s television, OTT platforms, or films if given an opportunity, seize it. You never know what destiny has in store for you,” the actress added.
The actress now is all set to make her Kannada film debut with “DVIJA”
We sat down with the fashion icon to talk about the drive
Do you follow fashion trends? How do you put together an outfit in the morning?
I would say I do not follow fashion trends. I follow whatever I’m feeling. I’m a rather emotional dresser, and I go by what I need to fulfill for the day. If I’m feeling rebellious, if I’m feeling sexy, if I’m feeling floral, that’s kind of what I follow. It’s very creative, and sometimes I think following trends doesn’t feel creative to me because it is dictating what you should be wearing.
What did your parents think of you wanting to become an actress?
I was lucky that my parents fostered that creative part of me and followed my lead. My mom, to this day, will say, ‘You need to learn a trade.’ But she also really honored my creative expression, which was acting.
“My mom just let me grow my wings and do my thing.”
IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY HOME/HOUSE OUT OF A FILM, WHAT HOUSE WOULD IT BE?
I would have Robert Downey Junior’s home in Iron Man because it’s so damn cool and I could pretend I was Gwyneth Paltrow’s character, Pepperpot!!
WHAT’S YOUR LIFE MOTTO?
“Never Give Up…”
