Radhika Madan believes in 'craft'; talks about box-office numbers
'Angrezi Medium' actor Radhika Madan spoke about the box-office game and how she has never paid attention to it and focused only on her craft.
Angrezi Medium actor Radhika Madan spoke about the box-office game and how she has never paid attention to it and focused only on her craft. In an interview with a leading daily, Madan confessed that box-office is never a priority for her as her 'job is done on the last day of the shoot and during promotions.'
Radhika said that she puts in all the efforts till promotions and post that the result is not in her hands. Though a box-office hit will make her 'commercially viable' but Radhika says that is not on her mind. For the Pataakha actor, it is her 'craft' that matters because even if the film doesn't collect money, an actor's craft will get them work.
"But if the film dows well yet you failed to touch a chord with your performance, then...?," questioned Radhika in an interview with Hindustan Times and asserted that she prefers looking at the 'broader prespective'.
Madan concluded that she strongly believes in 'sustainability and longevity' and supports her argument by giving examples of Pataakha and Mard Ko Dard Nai Hota that got her immense 'critical appreciation' even though they failed at box-office.
