Radhika Apte may have started off working in theatre but the actress has made a name for herself in Bollywood. She is one of the few bold actresses on and off camera and has no problem in nudity in films.

In an interview with a publication she talks about Parched which had a topless scene and the leaked version of the scene which caused an uproar. "Films are big in our country and people are emotional about it. I am aware of what happened with the nude scene in Parched. But men and women who connected with it, didn't see it through the prism of nudity. The problem arises when nudity is seen out of context. Even then, I don't think the our audience is immature," she says, adding, "Nudity is justified if it's relevant to the plot. The intention should be right. But if it's just about showing women dancing naked in the name of entertainment, that's not acceptable. It really depends on why you are putting it in."

Radhika also feels there's a change in the industry with more female-centric films today. "Yes, there has been significant change in the way roles are being written for women. In fact, the last decade has been good. Interestingly , not just actresses, even actors are stuck with clichéd roles. Udta Punjab and Piku are exceptions. The image of an actor plays a huge role in deciding if he or she can experiment with roles. The fear of the audience not accepting looms large, too."
