Lakshmi Niwas , the family drama has managed to retain the interest of the audience by bringing about an authentic depiction of relations and life’s unpredictabilities. In some of the latest episodes, the audience saw one of the most tumultuous periods in Radhika’s life. Starting from being interrogated on account of her marriage to having to witness her parents suffer due to society’s ridicule, Radhika had to fight through many confusions and disappointments.

Akshita Mudgal , who plays the part of Radhika, also faced similar hardships while playing the role. Being a very strong-minded girl who stands for good values and truth, Radhika is taken to a stage where she starts doubting everything around her due to the situations that prevail. What affects her the most is having to see her parents suffer for her sake.

Speaking about the emotionally intense track, Akshita Mudgal shared, “Radhika has always been someone who can endure anything herself, but the moment her parents are hurt or questioned because of her, that’s when it really breaks her. She never did wrong to anyone, so to see her constantly facing taunts and blame was emotionally exhausting. As an actor, staying in that emotional space for 12-13 hours every day was difficult. There were days when I would go home with swollen eyes because once you start living a character’s pain for so long, it stays with you even after pack-up. But somewhere, I also feel Radhika’s journey is a reminder that no matter how unfair life gets, you have to find the strength to stand up again. I hope girls who relate to her story find encouragement and hope through her journey.”

With Radhika finally starting to get some answers and move into a new phase of her life, audiences can rest assured that there is an emotionally touching but ultimately uplifting experience awaiting them.
