Aditi Rao Hydari has established a name for herself in the Hindi and South Indian film industry with her distinctive roles as well as praiseworthy acting skills. The Padmaavat actor started her career with a Tamil film, Sringaram in 2007 and has only worked her way up ever since.

Aditi Rao Hydari trivia
According to a report by Hindustan Times, Bhoomi actor Aditi Rao Hydari stated that she has lost out on a few international films as the makers of those movies didn't think she looked like a conventional Indian. She added that it is surprising how many times she has been told that she looks different and had it happened once, she would have ignored but it has occurred a number of occasions. Hydari also mentioned that even after giving a good audition, the role did not come to her and when she saw who they cast, it became evident to her why she was rejected. She didn't name the films as she felt it was not the right thing to do.
Elaborating, the actor said that she is amused because here in India, she is complimented for her traditional looks and the way she carries her Indian attire. She added that even directors like Mani Ratnam and Sanjay Leela Bhansali want her to wear Indian clothes and in their films, she has mostly donned Indian attire and outfits. She hopes that her international perception changes soon and things work out for her. Aditi concluded by saying that she is someone who believes in looking at the positives, rather than the negatives and staying strong, and working more.
