They both used the Tamil movie industry to launch their careers, but spent only a minority of time in Tamil once their success & fame spread across the South. Ambika acted in more Kannada and Malayalam movies, quickly getting to the top-2 spots in both markets. Radha conquered the undisputed top spot in Telugu movies for almost 5 years consecutively between 1984 and 1989.
