Radhika Apte: 'We live in a country where there is a lot of patriarchy, and so many women slog days and nights'

Firstpost  

Radhika Apte is gearing up for her upcoming film Mrs Undercover that will stream on Zee5 from April 14. Speaking about playing the role Durga and patriarchy, Apte told IANS, “I think the premise of the film was really exciting for me. We live in a country where there is a lot of patriarchy, and so many women slog days and nights to keep their families happy and yet go unnoticed, so I think it did resonate with me and what I like about Durga is her innocence, her naivety, her clumsiness and even her journey of discovering herself. I think that was really good.” The actress added, “I mean, it’s high time that we have equality, the world is changing and now everyone is fighting for equal rights, equal pay, equal job opportunities and equal recognition. The film industry is just a reflection of what is going around in society and the world is changing very slowly, and yet some parts of the world aren’t, and I think that’s just why we are getting some better parts.” Last year, in an exclusive interview with Firstpost, Apte, talking about her choices of roles, said, “I definitely make a choice from what is been offered to me.
