Rishi Rithvik is an Indian film actor, who has appeared in lead roles in Tamil-language films.
Career[edit]
Ritvik began his career as an athlete and competed professionally between 2001 and 2007, before moving on to work as a computer software engineer. He was later offered the lead acting role in Rathan Linga's directorial debut Attu (2017), where he portrayed a Chennai-based gangster. To prepare for the role, Rishi lost weight and interacted with real-life gangsters from the region. The film opened to positive reviews but took a low-key opening at the Chennai-based office.[1][2] As a result, a further film planned with Rathan Linga, Ugramm co-starring R. K. Suresh, and Sillaakki Dumma by Maran Kandhaswamy. were also put on hold.[3][4]
Rishi played a police officer in his second release, Marijuana (2020), before starring in Dola (2021), a film which notably only starred two actors.[5][6][7]
His forthcoming films include Raid co-starring Vikram Prabhu, and Thirumbi Paar, where he features alongside Vidya Pradeep.[8]
