Radhika Apte opens up on how leaked obscene video left her scarred, clarifies it wasn't her in the clip

Radhika Apte has always allowed her talent to speak volumes for her. While the actress has been making headlines for her projects, there was a time when she got entangled in controversy when an obscene video got leaked. Reports claimed that it was Radhika in the video. In a recent interview with a magazine, Radhika opened up about the leaked video and said that she couldn't even step out of the house for 4 days as her driver, watchman and her stylist's driver recognised her from the leaked clips.  

Talking about her film Parched, Radhika told, "I really needed a role like this because when you’re in Bollywood you’re constantly told what to do with your body and I always maintained that I would never do anything to my body or face. When a nude clip of mine leaked, while I was filming Clean Shaven, I was trolled badly, and it did affect me. I couldn’t step out of the house for four days, not because of what the media was saying but because my driver, watchman, and my stylist’s driver recognised me from the images."

She further said that it wasn't her in the leaked obscene video. "The controversial photographs were bare-skinned selfies, and anyone with a sane eye would have guessed it wasn’t me. I don't think there is anything one can do, or one should do, but ignore it. Anything else is a waste of your time. So, when I stripped for Parched, I realised: ‘There’s nothing left for me to hide'," Radhika added.

The actress was last seen in Disney+Hotstar's OK Computer. She has signed Anushree Mehta's upcoming directorial Mrs. Undercover.
