We have heard of so many actors who began their careers as child actors. They later went on to become big stars in the industry. In this article, we will talk about one such star who started as a child artist and then went on to be one of the most popular stars of Kannada industry. The actress has been in the news for her early marriage. Her personal life has been the talk of the town. She got married at the age of 14 in 2000. Her husband had accused her father of abducting her as he was scared that her career might end after the news of marriage.
But, even after so many talks about her, she managed to establish herself as a well known actress of the South Indian industry. After she got married at the age of 14, her mother accused her husband of marrying her forcibly and wanted the marriage to end.
We are talking about Kannada actress Radhika Kumaraswamy. She was also in the news when her father had claimed that his son-in-law tried to burn Radhika alive. In the same year, her husband Ratan Kumar died due to heart attack. Radhika has been a part of movies like Oppanda with Arjun Sarja, Rudra Tandava with Chiranjeevi Sarja. She has even produced a movie titled Lucky which starred Yash. She is one of the most talked about actresses in entertainment news.
Radhika was born on November 1, 1986. She is from a Tulu-speaking family and was named Radhika Poojary. Later, after her first marriage, she married for the second time in 2006 to H. D. Kumaraswamy, who is Minister of Heavy Industries and Steel of India presently. He has also served as the 18th Chief Minister of Karnataka.
Again, Radhika went against her father to marry H. D. Kumaraswamy. He is 27 years older to her and it was a second marriage for both of them. They have a daughter, Shamika. Radhika is a full-time producer and actor now and as per reports, her net worth is Rs 124 crore.
