After ''[[Eli (2015 film)|Eli]]'' in 2015, which sort of marked her comeback to Tamil cinema, Sadha made another comeback with ''[[Torchlight (2018 film)|Torchlight]]'' in 2018. "These gaps are unintentional," she said. "I got busy with Telugu reality shows for three years, and was judging Jodi No 1. I also wasn't happy with the films I was getting. I'm glad ''Torchlight'' happened."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/tamil/2018/sep/11/the-sadha-interview--i-censored-torchlight-myself-did-not-want-film-to-look-sleazy-1870212.html|title=The Sadha interview &#124; 'I censored 'Torchlight' myself; did not want film to look sleazy'|website=The New Indian Express}}</ref>
