When asked during an interview by a weekend publication whether she found the nude scenes a challenge, Rithika has said, 'the one you see on screen is a film role, not me.'

She has also added that although viewers tend to perceive of playing nude scenes as a challenge, it was not an issue as the scenes were carefully planned.

Rithika said that she saw her performance only during the media show of 'Let Her Cry' which was held at the Tharangani Film theatre recently.

And old girl of St. Paul's Milagiriya, Rithika has a younger sister and brother.
