'Industry' Gives Us The Character Study We've Been Waiting For
HuffPost
The latest episode focuses on the ups and downs of Rishi Ramdani, who is portrayed by Sagar Radia with the perfect mix of exaggerated machismo and frazzled energy.
If you had to pick one word to describe Sunday night’s episode of “Industry,” the first one to come to mind might be “chaos.”
But as is often the case with the hit HBO series, that chaos is portrayed in such a bold and ambitious way that you cannot look away. Season 3, Episode 4 focuses in on chaos agent Rishi Ramdani (Ragar Sadia), the king of one-liners and lewd commentary on the trading floor at Pierpoint. Sadia was upped to a series regular in Season 3.
“He’s an alpha male, he leads with his chest out,” Radia told The New York Times. “And he’s the epitome of bravado, which is so fascinating, because for someone like myself who comes from a British South Asian background as an actor, we don’t get the chance to play those types of roles.”
Throughout the episode, audiences get a peek into Rishi’s life with his wife Diana (Brittany Ashworth) and newborn, the financial secrets he’s hiding in his personal life and his career, and how his brash personality at work is a bit different than his demeanor with people in and around his home.
