Telugu audiences were first introduced to Radhika Apte through impactful roles in films like Legend, Raktha Charitra, and Lion. Over time, she earned a reputation in Bollywood for her bold and unconventional roles. Most recently, she received international acclaim for her performance in Sister Midnight, a film that is now gearing up for its release in India. As part of its promotions, Radhika has been actively interacting with the media.
With the rise of social media, rumors spread faster than ever, often with little regard for facts. One such rumor that’s been making the rounds is about Radhika Apte starring in an upcoming film directed by Puri Jagannadh, with Vijay Sethupathi in the lead role.
Since the makers of the film remained silent on the matter, many assumed the news to be true. However, during a recent media interaction, Radhika Apte was directly asked about the rumored role. Clarifying the situation, she said, “I’ve heard that news too. But I’m not part of the film. In fact, I had no idea about this project until I saw it in newspapers and websites. Even I was surprised!”
With her statement, it’s now confirmed that Radhika Apte is not involved in the Puri–Sethupathi project. The big question now is: Who will be cast in her place?
So far, only two cast members have been officially confirmed — Tabu and Duniya Vijay. Though Nivetha Thomas is rumored to be on board, there’s been no official announcement regarding her inclusion either. According to sources close to Puri, the director is keen on assembling a strong lineup of talented actors, which is taking time.
After facing setbacks with Liger and Double iSmart, Puri Jagannadh is determined to make a powerful comeback with this film. Reportedly, the working title of the movie is “Beggar”, and the team is currently busy finalizing the cast.
Fans and industry watchers alike are eagerly waiting to see how this new collaboration shapes up and who steps into the key roles.
