Radhika Apte (Marathi pronunciation:[ɾaːd̪ʰikaːəpʈe]) (born 7 September 1985) is an Indian actress who works primarily in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Marathi films. Apte has received several awards including an International Emmy Award nomination, thus becoming the first Indian actress to do so.[1][2]
Apte began acting in theatre and made her film debut with a brief role in the fantasy drama, Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi! (2005). Apte's first lead role was in the 2009 Bengali social drama, Antaheen. She gained attention for her supporting roles in three of her 2015 Bollywood productions: the revenge drama Badlapur, the comedy Hunterrr, and the biographical film Manjhi - The Mountain Man. Her leading roles in the 2016 independent films Phobia and Parched earned her acclaim.[3] In 2018, Apte starred in three Netflix productions – the anthology film Lust Stories, the thriller series Sacred Games,[4] and the horror mini-series Ghoul.[5] She was nominated for an International Emmy Award for her work in the first of these.[6] She has since starred in the Netflix films Raat Akeli Hai (2020) and Monica, O My Darling (2022), and portrayed Noor Inayat Khan in the American film A Call to Spy (2019).
In addition to her work in independent films, Apte has also played the leading lady in mainstream films, such as the Tamil action film Kabali (2016), the Hindi biographical film Pad Man (2018), and the Hindi black comedy Andhadhun (2018), all of which were commercially successful. She has been married to London-based musician, Benedict Taylor, since 2012.
