  • Talking about the challenges faced by a model, she said in an interview that sometimes it becomes difficult to tell people about the job they do. She said that people think that modelling is not a place where you can stay for a long time. There are no loan facilities available for people who do not have a salaried job.
  • She also shared some benefits of being a model. She said in an interview that as a model, one gets a chance to travel a lot and experience new places.
  • In an interview, she shared what she learnt from modelling. She said that a person gets to meet many types of people and some pull you down but one should learn how to ignore them.
  • Radhika gave advice to the young models and said in an interview,

    Don’t try too hard to fit in, do not try to please everyone. Be yourself, people will eventually accept you.”

  • In an interview, she also talked about the growth of fashion in India. She said,

    Fashion has come a long way in representation, but sometimes for a show, they forget to look at you as a person and focus on your colour instead. You hear things like ‘enough brown girls’ or ‘enough white girls’. I know I have a responsibility to those girls who haven’t seen a South Indian with their skin tone being called beautiful in mainstream media. I want these girls to understand that I’m being myself and that’s what diversity is. It’s not just about race and colour but about individuality.”

  • She also talks about how the colour of the skin should not be a big deal. She said that a person born dark or fair is not their choice. They are born by god`s choice. One cannot change the colour of their skin. So, the colour of the skin should not be a great issue. She further added that everyone is beautiful in their own way. Everyone has some unique features about themselves.
  • In an interview, Nair shared her beauty routine and said that she is inspired by her mother. She said,

    My mother doesn’t use any products but natural, homemade remedies like turmeric, coconut oil, and egg white. She always grows in her garden what she uses on her skin or her beauty regime. I also like [my routine] minimal and low-maintenance. It’s all about what you put on the inside, and the outside takes care of itself.”

  • In an interview, she said that her essentials are Coconut oil, honey and her perfume.
  • She does not gain weight very easily. She eats everything and does some stretching whenever she gets free time.
  • She does not like colours much. She prefers to wear pastel colours like grey and black.
  • Her life`s motto is- One day at a time.
