==Acting career==
Ritika Singh began her acting career in 2013, she was spotted by director [[Sudha Kongara Prasad]] in an advert for the Super Fight League and she later auditioned to play a leading role in her bilingual film, ''Saala Khadoos'' (2016), after the makers managed to contact her through the competition's chairman, [[Raj Kundra]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/never-thought-of-acting-in-bollywood-boxer-ritika-singh/ |title=Never thought of acting in Bollywood: boxer Ritika Singh |newspaper=[[The Indian Express]] |date=2016-01-12 |accessdate=2016-09-25}}</ref> Portraying Madhi, a Marwari girl who grows up in the slums of [[Chennai]], Singh was signed because the makers wanted a professional boxer to act, rather than an actress to act as a boxer.

Madhavan]] and [[Rajkumar Hirani]], the film was released in late January 2016.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.india.com/showbiz/saala-khadoos-ritika-singh-not-the-only-real-life-boxer-in-the-rajkumar-hirani-movie-890567/ |title=Saala Khadoos: Ritika Singh not the only real-life boxer in the Rajkumar Hirani movie! |website=India.com |date= |accessdate=2016-09-25}}</ref> Ritika received rave reviews for her portrayal, with [[Sify|Sify.com]] stating "she is a marvelous discovery" and "her lip sync, body language and gait is a major highlight for the film".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sify.com/movies/irudhi-suttru-review-tamil-qb3kkffigibjj.html |title=Review : Irudhi Suttru review |website=Sify.com |date= |accessdate=2016-09-25}}</ref> For her performance in ''Irudhi Suttru'', Ritika won the [[National Film Award – Special Mention (Feature Film)|a Special Mention]] at the [[63rd National Film Awards]], and became the first actress, who did not dub for her role, to be recognised at the National Awards.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/regional/its-like-winning-an-oscar-ritika-singh-on-national-award/ |title=It’s like winning an Oscar: Ritika Singh on National Award |newspaper=[[The Indian Express]] |date=2016-03-28 |accessdate=2016-09-25}}</ref> Singh later appeared in [[M.
