After the release of DJ Tillu, the name ‘Radhika’ became popular among young people and women, thanks to Neha Shetty’s portrayal of the character. Neha Shetty stole the show with her performance as ‘Radhika’. In the sequel, titled Tillu Square, Anupama Parameswaran played the love interest for Tillu, this time as ‘Lilly’. The film has exceeded everyone’s expectations, from overseas to Nizam.
Radhika Vs Lilly
The question arises: between the two leading ladies, ‘Radhika’ and ‘Lilly’, who had a better screen presence and earned more fans? Despite the audience’s enjoyment of the sequel, it’s ‘Radhika’ who unquestionably stole the show and dominated ‘Lilly’. This is largely due to how the roles were written and presented. In the first part, Neha Shetty’s role as Radhika was written in a way that created fun and tense moments between her and Tillu. Neha effortlessly portrayed Radhika with her screen presence.
Anupama Parameswaran Vs Neha Shetty
In Tillu Square, Anupama Parameswaran’s portrayal of Lilly didn’t leave a lasting impact. Her role mainly consisted of a few intimate scenes and presenting herself as a glamorous character. The interactions between Lilly and Tillu lacked the magic and fun of Tillu and Radhika’s banter. Unlike Radhika, Lilly didn’t have any memorable scenes with Tillu in Tillu Square.
The focus of Tillu Square was mainly on Siddhu‘s performance, with Lilly’s role revolving around providing a glamorous and chic presence on screen, which Anupama Parameswaran managed without any issues. The difference in reception is evident when Radhika makes a brief appearance on screen during Tillu Square, and the audience responds enthusiastically.
In conclusion, Neha Shetty‘s portrayal of Radhika outshone Anupama Parameswaran’s Lilly in Tillu Square. Despite Siddhu being the main character, Radhika’s character captured more attention and garnered more fans due to the way her role was written and presented.
