- In April 2015 Radhika’s nude clip went viral on the internet which was from the Anurag Kashyap’s short film Madly.
- Radhika Apte made headlines in February 2015 after some nude pictures (allegedly Radhika’s pictures) started doing the rounds on the internet. Brushing the topic off Radhika tweeted, “You guys! If you’re going to get someone to pass off as naked me, she needs to look a lot more like me.” [sic] But the twist in the tale was that this tweet was posted about 4-5 days before her pictures went viral. According to a report on Greatandhra.com, it was reported that the leak was a publicity stunt by Radhika in order to promote her film, Badlapur, co-starring Varun Dhawan. It was also said that Radhika posted the tweet to drive attention towards her leaked pictures which later went viral after the post.
- Dev Patel, “The leaked sex scene featured both Radhika Apte and Dev Patel in it. But the scenes are being spread in my name. Why the pictures are not getting spread under the male actor Dev Patel’s name,” Radhika told Bollywood Life.
- “It shows how sexually obsessed a lot of people in our society are. You leak only the sex scene and no other beautiful scenes from the film. It only shows that we are extremely obsessed about sex and yet we don’t want to talk about it. The most interesting aspect is that the leaked videos are titled as Radhika Apte sex scene and not as Adil Hussain sex scene. That’s because a man doing it is just another matter whereas when a woman does it, it does matter,”
