Tamil actress Lakshmi Rai quotes

‘Today’s youth who come to films want to see glamourous heroines. I want to catch their attention and win their hearts. I will be sensuous and sexy but not vulgar on screen. Once you have come to films then you should not draw any barriers.’

‘I’m just an actress. When I’m on the sets, I’m not Lakshmi Rai. I’m the character. So, I really don’t find anything strange about playing those roles or acting in kissing scenes.’

‘In the beginning no doubt glamour helps one to get noted. After establishing myself, I would venture to do roles that will allow me to perform. In the actor-driven industry, I consider glamour an integral part of the industry. But it should not be a mere skin show.’

‘I haven’t dreamt of becoming an actress. But my participation in school dramas and dances has led me into the Padmini School of acting, which initially led me into modeling and later into the film industry.’

‘I had developed some kind of obsession towards arts, be it dancing, stage shows or even modeling. I was successful to a certain extent too. Everybody told me that I would for sure get a chance in films without any difficulty, which happened just like that.’

‘I am aiming to work a lot in Tamil Cinema and become numero one some day. For this, I would be always careful to chose my film and maintain my body and also reputation.’

‘Ours is very close knit family. We are three sisters. I am the youngest and hence the most pampered girl. Whenever we are at home we have our share of fights and fun. I am Lush to my sisters while my mother calls me Lucky. My father had expected the last kid to be a boy and so he calls me Krishna’
