Presently, the International Film Festival of India is
underway in Goa and numerous actors and filmmakers from across the world have
been attending the same. One of the speakers at the event was Nithya Menen. On
the panel, she was along with Rashmika Mandanna and movie critic Baradwaj
Rangan and they spoke about their journey.
Nithya disclosed that she got into movies by chance. "I
wanted to be in the forest, around animals, make films on them. My personality
was so not suited for the film industry, no diplomacy, no fondness for
attention. But very recently I started to develop an incredible love for
cinema. What a beautiful medium this is. I can make something that can change
the emotional state of people."
She compared her newfound love for cinema with arrange
marriage. She specified, "Maybe this is what arrange marriage feels like.
After some time there is deep love."
When questioned if the film industry is safe for women, to
which Nithya revealed, "You are safe as you allow yourself to be. No one
will force you. Bad behaviour is everywhere not only in the film industry. You
need to decide what you want to do how much you want or don’t want to
compromise."
