Radhikka Madan on Lust Stories 3: Female Desire Explored

Radhikka Madan revealed her reasons for joining Netflix's 'Lust Stories 3,' citing director Shakun Batra's script and the opportunity to portray complex, flawed characters like Sailee. Madan felt drawn to the imperfections in both her character and Ali Fazal's, appreciating the layered nature of their roles.

Madan also addressed the societal tendency to unfairly blame women when relationships falter, noting that women are often solely held responsible for a household's success or failure. She shared her personal values for a partner, emphasizing empathy, respect, passion, and kindness.

The actor praised the anthology's depiction of female desire, commending its natural and non-sensationalized approach. Madan believes Indian cinema has evolved, moving away from objectification towards more developed female characters that are not solely for the male gaze. She expressed a commitment to avoiding roles that treat women as mere 'furniture'.
