Kushboo Sundar Remembers Silk Smitha’s Yearning For Family Life

Kushboo Sundar remembered the actor Silk Smitha on the 30th anniversary of her death.

Smitha’s original name was Vijayalakshmi.

Kushboo said she called her “Viji,” and that Smitha liked hearing that name.

She remembered Smitha as a major star who could strongly attract attention on screen.

Kushboo said Smitha was quiet and sometimes seemed arrogant to other people.

She believed this was Smitha’s way of protecting herself.

Smitha wanted a normal home and family life, but Kushboo said she never got it.

Smitha acted in more than 450 movies over 18 years.
