At the time of their wedding, HD Kumaraswamy was 47, and Radhika was 27 years younger than him. Radhika became HD Kumaraswamy's second wife. His first marriage took place in 1986.
Radhika's decision might have been beneficial for her personal life but her career in films was ruined forever because of it. There was also an uproar in the life of JDS leader and former Chief Minister of Karnataka HD Kumaraswamy.
Even though Radhika worked in more than 30 films, her career as an actress came to a halt. When she did not make a career in films as an actress, she started producing films. She produced her first Kannada film 'Lucky' starring Yash in the year 2012.
