“Omg! She’s pregnant, how exciting!” one follower wrote, while another added, “Congratulations ❤️ on both the premiere and your pregnancy! You look magnificent on the red carpet.”
Radhika Apte has been married to British violinist and composer Benedict Taylor since 2012. The couple, who prefers to maintain a low profile despite their involvement in the entertainment industry, divides their time between London and Mumbai. Their love story began in 2011 when Radhika traveled to London for a sabbatical to study contemporary dance.
Beyond her personal milestones, Radhika continues to make her mark professionally. She recently made a cameo appearance in Sriram Raghavan’s Merry Christmas, sharing screen space with Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi. Her upcoming project, Akka, a revenge thriller produced by YRF Entertainment, will see her star alongside Keerthy Suresh.
Radhika’s presence at the BFI London Film Festival served as a double celebration—both for her film’s premiere and the exciting new chapter in her life. With her characteristic grace and subtlety, she once again captivated audiences, on and off-screen.
