Actresses have an ability to outperform many expectations when given a good role and Rithika manages to pull the rug under our feet with her terrific presence in her latest release, Shivalinga. Just two weeks back, we saw this young lady box out to glory under the able guidance of Venkatesh as her boxing coach in Guru.
As the earlier movie is being revered, we were able to conclude that her National Award in Irudhi Suttru/ Saala Khadoos for the same role is not just a fluke as she was able to repeat and even better her performance. As she is also a trained boxer, many thought may be this is one of those performances from an athlete turned actor like Aswini Nacchappa who also received much praise for acting as herself in the biopic, Ashwini based on her life.
But the young actress proved all those naysayers wrong. Even though she did one other film with Vijay Sethupathi, Andavan Kattalai, where she looked completely out of her comfort zone, was able to transform for the movie, Shivalinga. In the Lawrence starrer, she danced toe to toe with the popular choreographer and also performed very well in the tough scenes as a possessed young 22 year old housewife. She was able to act in the body language of a man and switch to a young lady with proverbial ease. Well, she just shocked with her talent and dedication to improve, with the movie.
