Ghoul, a mini-series on Netflix is not only the first original Indian horror show on the streaming platform, it's also their third collaboration with Phantom Films and actress Radhika Apte. This frequent popping up on social media newsfeed has people questioning if they are seeing too much of Radhika Apte lately. Because let's face it, Akshay Kumar or Rajkummar Rao doing three films a year is perfectly fine.
Many Indians pay 500 Rs a month to see Radhika Apte make faces.

Actor Ashwin Mushran called out these complainers with a very apt(e?) tweet.
Seriously?

There are articles being written about Radhika Apte saying 'are we seeing too much of her?"
At the same time the media is posting airport looks, pics of star kids who have done nothing in their career & Every second of Taimur' s day.
Don't begrudge an actor's work
But the best response came from Apte and Netflix.
The brilliant social media team of Netflix India came up with the idea of mocking people who think they are seeing too much of the talented actress. They called the spoof 'Omnipresent.'
In the video we see Radhika and director-producer Vikramaditya Motwane discuss their new film that has landed on Netflix yet again. Radhika reveals that after doing three projects back to back with Motwane's production company Phantom Films, she needed something more to come back. Motwane couldn't agree more and offers to let her play every single character in the movie from a repressed villager, a virtuous social activist, a corporate oppressor and many more.
At one point, Radhika replaces Motwane, truly establishing her omnipresence.
Watch the video
The video found many takers and gave way to hilarious reactions from netizens.
Radhika Apte for Netflix is what Suryavansham for Set max.

All these "concerned" people need not worry as the next project Apte will be delivering is with Viacom18 titled Andhadhun. The movie is directed by Sriram Raghavan and also starrs Ayushmann Khurrana and Tabu.
