Relationships/Affairs

In an episode of Bigg boss 4 (Malayalam), the actress disclosed about her relationship and the ugly breakup that followed it. She said,

It was during my initial days in acting, that he contacted me and expressed his love. He even shared his wish to marry me with my parents. Eventually, I also fell in love with him. It was a beautiful time indeed. Once, I shared my wish to go on a ride and he took me on a bike to Kollam. From there we watched the movie ‘Ennu Ninte Moitheen”

She added,

Everything went smooth, but slowly we started having issues. He started doubting me and insisted to stop my acting career. Hence, I realized that this will not work and we broke up,”

Career

She took professional training in Mohiniyattam for nine years, which got her the opportunity to portray the role of goddess Durga in the Malayalam Serial Krishana Kripa Sagaram, which aired on Amrita TV. She was in the sixth standard at the time when she started acting in the serial. Later, she acted in various shows as a mythological character, which almost created a situation of typecasting for her.

She took a brave decision and chose a negative role in the show Kalyanasaugandhikam. She started getting noticed as a beautiful vamp by the audience. In an interview, she expressed,

I desperately wanted to do something different. So I shifted my focus onto family dramas. Durga represents power and my experience helped me too. Thus, playing a vamp was never tough,”

Following this, she grabbed the opportunity to play the antagonist character Padmini aka Pappi in ‘Vanambadi’ and emerged as one of the most crooked ‘Villathi’ or vamp on-screen. In an interview, she said,

I am fortunate to be blessed with so much love for my character. They hate Padmini for torturing Anu, but they shower so much love upon me, The secret behind the on-screen chemistry between Mohan and Padmini is the friendship we share off-screen. Every time the director says ‘Action’, Sai says, ‘Come, let’s fight’. And soon after the shot ends, we start pulling each other’s legs,”

However, for her, transitioning from the serenity of the goddess to the viciousness of the vamp wasn’t as easy. In an interview, she revealed the struggle behind switching between the drastic change in emotions and said,

There is nothing more to be done while acting as a goddess. The look is important. When started acting in Vanambadi, at first went up to 25 take. I was in Devi’s hangover for the first two or three schedules Roughness in the look. When look at him when he asks me to give him a look, the director says, “Goddess Goddess is coming That was slowly replaced Right now”

During the wind-up of the serial, she confirmed that she would take a break from acting to focus on her dance lessons. In an interview, she said,

I am not planning to commit to any serials soon. Due to the busy shooting schedules, I had to be away from my dancing stint. So, the first priority is my dance now. My teacher was eagerly waiting for the serial to end,”

Even after Vanambadi went off-air, Suchithra’s character Padmini remained popular among the fans.

She won a beauty contest conducted by Metro Manorama in 2018.

She made her debut in hosting with the show ‘Start Music’.

She entered Bigg Boss 4 (Malayalam) as a contestant in 2022.
