‘I believe in living life to the fullest’

Telly actress Madirakshi, who made her debut in the Telugu film Ori Devudoy, is now playing Sita in the mythological show, Siya Ke Ram. In a candid chat, she tells us about her journey as an actor, forthcoming movies and gives us a glimpse of a day in her life. Excepts from the interview:

From an actor to an interior designer, it’s been quite a transition. What has the journey been like

I had no aspirations of becoming an actor because I was happily pursuing my interior designing course back in Indore. Later I bagged a job in Delhi, and since then, I just went with the flow. Acting happened by chance — and before I knew it I was shooting for Ori Devudoy. And now, here I am, a part of the small screen with an ambitious project like this one.

Have movies taken a backseat now that you’re doing Siya Ke Ram and also because the going seems good for you

That has not really been put on hold, but I believe in doing complete justice to every project I take up. Since Siya Ke Ram is my debut in the Hindi telly industry and my most prestigious project so far, it is my duty to ensure I give it my 100 per cent.
