past. She had confessed to
the media openly that she is not a feminist though her movies intend to
be so. Her both the films,
'Mitr, My Friend' and 'Phir Milenge' had a content based on women and
were more approachable to
women. She says that it was natural and it was never done with any
intension. As she is a women herself,
she could understand the situations more easily than any other person
could do. But she refuses that
she is a feminist by nature.

mother and was a dedication done
not only to her mother but to all the mothers who take care of their
families. In the same manner

CavinKare Ability Awards 2007-2008: -
Revathy was present for the CavinKare Ability Awards 2007-2008. She
made an interesting interview with
the IANS.
She was questioned if women as role of heroine were doing much more
than the glamorous part by dancing
in the rain and under the trees alone. She boldly replied that for the
past few decades’ heroines were
given glamorous roles than being so decorative.
Revathy also stated that when a movie is called a commercial one it
means the heroine has played a
very glamorous role in the film and of course who else apart from the
heroine can perform that role
and bring that effect? If the story requires the scene then it
essential that heroine should be glamorous.
Revathy feels that it is the expectation of the audience which make the
film makers to bring it to the
screens. Revathy confessed that there is no wrong for men to take care
to look good and according to her
physicality in men can also be maintained and it is of no wrong in
doing so. She supports men as
heroes doing item numbers and said that there is good physicality in
men and it should be enjoyed.
As an actress Revathy started her career in the film "Pudumai Penn" and
also got the national award for
the movie "Dhoop" in which she performed a brilliant role. Last but not
the least Revathy made a perfect
role in the movie "Nishabd". Though the film did not have good
collections, her role was appreciated by
the mass.
Revathy said that she was not looking forward for any kind of
particular role but would take up unusual
performances. She also stated that she will not act any more and
audience cannot see her in screens.
But she will be prepared to give either one or two films in the
upcoming years.
When one of the artist questioned about her career she answered to it
by saying that she had a lot of
job to be completed on time. She also stated that she would start her
directing work by the next year
though the subject has not been yet decided.
