‘I had no idea what marriage meant’
Avika rose to fame with the 2008 Hindi TV show Balika Vadhu, which was released in Telugu as Chinnari Pellikuthuru. She played a child bride in the show that had massive viewership. “I had no idea what marriage meant, how a bride should be back then and I relied heavily on the director. Being an actor at such a young age meant I lost time in my personal life but got to embody different characters every day,” she explains, adding, “While doing Vadhuvu, I felt like I knew what marriage meant.” Avika is currently dating Milind Chandwani.
On her on-screen marriages
Avika has also starred in shows like Sasural Simar Ka and Laado, apart from films like Uyyala Jampala, Net, Thank You and more. A lot of work saw her get married on-screen and she clarifies that it doesn’t ‘bore’ her. “I love getting dressed up as a bride, from Balika Vadhu to Vadhuvu, I have been married at least 20 times on-screen. While doing the wedding scene in this series, I felt in the zone again. My experience and knowledge has changed a lot since I debuted,” she says.
On making it in Tollywood
Since her debut as a lead in 2013, Avika has acted in numerous Telugu films apart from Hindi and Kannada ones. “The industry has given me a chance to work in some good projects, including produce a film called Pop Corn,” she says, adding, “I mostly have suspense and thriller films coming my way but I would love to do a good love story. I don’t want to limit myself as an actor.”
