Radhika Madan opened up recently about giving the auditions for Student of the Year 2, which she called as the ‘worst audition of my life’. She recalled over-preparing before the audition which led to her falling sick.

In an interview with Filmfare, Radhika said, “I got a very big audition. It was for Student of the Year 2. I psyched myself so much. I was preparing so much, it wasn’t even a two-page scene, I’d read it in my sleep as well. I psyched myself so much that I got sick before the audition. I had a fever, I had a cold, and I gave the worst audition of my life. I was so anxious.”

She also said that she worked on her anxiety after this and improved herself. “That day I promised myself that I am never going to feel this way, that I don’t want to be in a limbo and feel this anxious in my life,” she said.

This is what helped her to get the role in Vishal Bhardwaj’s Pataakha. She added, “After that Student of The Year audition, after two weeks of giving the worst audition of my life, I got the audition for Pataakha. I was told it was a Vishal Bhardwaj film, and I was like, ‘He’s not going to take me anyway, I’ll go there and live my life. I’ll live those two minutes to the fullest, no one can snatch that away from me.'”

She was selected for the role in the film which also starred Sanya Malhotra alongside her. Radhika was last seen in Akshay Kumar’s Sarfira, which didn’t fare well at the box-office.
