The actress played the female lead in Right , headlined by Natty and directed by Subramanian Rameshkumar.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"6\"\/>Akshara, a Chennaiite who was born into a Telugu family, shares that she had a good time working on the project and is all praise for her co-stars. \u201cNatty sir is very down to earth and also an amazing actor. He, Arun Pandian sir and Vinodhini Vaidyanathan ma\u2019am were always on time, disciplined and had no ego. I think the reason they have been in the industry for such a long time is due to these qualities,\u201d she states.Speaking about Bigg Boss , she shares, \u201cIt helped me garner good recognition among the Tamil audience. After Bigg Boss , I had a few good opportunities come my way, but I couldn\u2019t take them up, as my mom was sick. It\u2019s only after her passing that I started signing more projects.\u201d<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>Stressing that if a challenging role comes her way, she\u2019ll surely pick it up, Akshara says, \u201cI want to explore diverse roles rather than just be a glam doll.
