Unfazed by her mixed report card in T-town, Sada has beendoing her share of Kollywood and Sandalwood films and is now even eyeingBollywood. She confesses that while ���������������������������commercial success of a film isimportant��������������������������� she still treats each film as a ���������������������������learning experience.Every project is close to my heart.���������������������������
Being a multi-lingualactress has reaped rich dividends for her especially since she tasted successwith Anniyan and Unnale Unnale in Tamil and Monalisa in Kannada. ���������������������������Now I amvery excited about my new Tamil film with Madhavan, Avan Aval Athu, which is agripping supernatural thriller. I am also super excited about my untitledKannada film and Telugu film Aa Aaa Ee Eee (���������������������������a rib-tickler���������������������������)
Her seven-year stint in southern cinema has been enriching and hashelped her shape into a complete actress.
After Aparachitudu,she���������������������������s playing the role of an orthodox Tamil-speaking Brahmin girl in herBollywood debut. How does it feel? ���������������������������Well, more than the role, it���������������������������s agreat relief to dub your own lines,��������������������������� says the actress, who relied onborrowed voices for her south films. Unlike her screen character who waitspatiently for her flirtatious lover to return to her in her new B-town film,Sada firmly points out that if she had a boyfriend like that, in real life,���������������������������I���������������������������d have just dumped him,��������������������������� she says.
There���������������������������s a reasonbehind her angst against polygamous men in real life. She says, ���������������������������I thinkevery man is a compulsive flirt. Some show off their flirtatious tendencies whenthey are young, others suppress it. But given a choice, they will all like toflirt with women.���������������������������
Does that mean, she hasn���������������������������t she come acrossa Mr Right yet? ���������������������������The very idea of Mr Right is a myth. I don���������������������������t thinkany one fits that bill on this earth. Some men are unfaithful to theirpartners/spouses. In fact that���������������������������s why I haven���������������������������t got into arelationship with a man,��������������������������� she says. Really? ���������������������������Well, I���������������������������ve had my share of crushes but I am wary of committing myself,��������������������������� she chips in. Herman should be ���������������������������loyal, good-looking and sensitive ��������������������������� all rolled intoone. May be it���������������������������s a tall order, but I���������������������������ll find him for sure,���������������������������she chuckles.
Sada���������������������������s Bollywood platter seems to have some variety: alaugh riot (Khalbilli) and a supernatural thriller (Click). ���������������������������I was totallyspooked when I shot for Click. Even now I can���������������������������t stay alone in darkrooms,��������������������������� she confesses.
A typical home-bird, Sada is seldom spottedat parties or filmi bashes. ���������������������������I like to do my work and go home. I am notinterested in socialising after work,��������������������������� she says emphatically.
