Actress Radhika Apte is known for her outstanding acting skills and good choice of roles. She has given some impeccable performances to Bollywood. Recently, the actress opened up about her role in the much-awaited film Vikram Vedha, which is an official remake of the 2017 Tamil neo-noir action thriller with the same title. She talked about what made her take it up and also revealed that after wrapping up the shoot of this film, she cried a lot. Read on to know the entire story.
In a conversation with a leading daily, Radhika said, “When I watched the film, I really liked the thought behind it. At the time, I was writing something similar – how we see things in white and black and raise fingers. How the world is becoming less tolerant each day. Vikram Vedha talks about these things in a very commercial manner. When I met the directors, I became their fan. They are unique, I have not met such a couple. They have one Facebook account and they do everything together. I talked to them for two hours and really enjoyed it. So, I thought working with them will give me more time with them.”
Continuing the same, Apte added, “Also, I had worked with Saif on two other projects but had few scenes with him. I have more scenes with him in this one and I enjoyed doing those.” She added that it is a big film and she needs a big commercial film at this point of her career. “Though, I refused a few big films because I did not agree with their sensibilities. This was a big film that matched my sensibilities so I agreed to do it. I enjoyed doing the film so much that I cried after the shoot ended. I cried because it was only a 12-day shoot.”
Let us tell you that Vikram Vedha also stars Hrithik Roshan, Saif Ali Khan, Rohit Saraf, and Yogita Bihani. While Hrithik will play Vedha, a gangster, Saif will be portraying Vikram, a cop. The film is helmed by Gayathri and Pushkar and is going to hit the theatres on September 30 this year
