On a roll with Lust Stories and Sacred Games, Radhika Apte is now looking forward to her big screen outing, Andhadhun. The noir thriller marks her reunion with director Sriram Raghavan after Badlapur (2015). “It’s a delight to be on a set with Sriram Raghavan. His eye for details and understanding of intricate characters is fascinating. These add depth to his films,” says Apte, whose selection of movies has veered towards middle-of-the-road rather than mainstream.

She promises it won’t be any different with her next, which sees her sharing screen space with Ayushmann Khurrana and Tabu. Quiz her on her role and she says, “It’s a quirky character with multiple layers. The film has elements of intrigue and suspense. As an actor, I enjoy delivering to the director’s vision.”
