She won the latter award again for her performances in ''Love Guru'' (2009) and ''Krishnan Love Story'' (2010), and in the process, became the only actress to have won the award on three consecutive years.

Her father Krishnaprasad Pandit belongs to the Brahmin community of Chitrapur Saraswats, with his roots in Shirali, in the Uttara Kannada region of Karnataka, and worked for an insurance company, apart from directing and appearing in plays. Her mother, Mangala, is of Goan descent, and is a housewife. Radhika has a younger brother, Gourang. She grew up in her paternal grandfather's house in Malleswaram and continues to live there for "sentimental reasons" as "had bought the house with all the money he had saved." She completed her schooling in Cluny Convent High School, Bangalore, and later pursued a Bachelor of Commerce (B. Com) course at the Mount Carmel College (Bangalore). Pandit aspired to become a teacher after completing a Master of Business Administration (MBA) course. However, in 2007, during her final year in B. Com, she was persuaded by her friend to audition for a role in a Kannada language television serial, ''Nandagokula'', directed by Ashok Kashyap. Pandit was offered the role without an audition. The same year, she appeared in another soap, ''Sumangali''. When the former neared completion, her photos began circulating in local magazines, which were noticed by film director Shashank who was looking for a female lead for his film ''18th Cross'', and the makers of ''Moggina Manasu''. She was cast in both the films, and began filming with the former first. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Radhika Pandit」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
