Radhika Apte has done both commercial and content-based
cinema. Now, in her career, she has
reached a point where the web is obsessed with her presence. Well, she is
enjoying the attention but she doesn’t aspire to be famous.
“I don’t really go chasing fame; I don’t crave popularity. I
like my work being appreciated, but I don’t keep track of it. To be honest, and
I get embarrassed about this a lot, sometimes I don’t really know what’s
happening around me. I don’t want to be famous, I just want to work,” Radhika revealed
to a daily.
Ask her, if she would say ‘yes’ to a project only based on
its financial credibility, she revealed, “Yes, I will sign a film for the
money. Because sometimes you don’t have the money to eat and you have to get
work and maintain a lifestyle. Not just actors, I think everybody does that. No
job on this planet is about 100 per cent satisfaction. You do some part of the
job for money.”
Talking about the path to success she revealed, “I think you
can’t get anywhere without hard work. Even if you are born with a silver spoon,
you have to work hard. I mean you could be offered films on a platter, but if
you don’t get up in the morning and learn your lines, it is not going to work.
You have to give it your best shot and deliver a good performance. Otherwise,
you are not going to make it. In a field like ours, I think luck also plays a
big role. Certain people get an opportunity because they happen to be in the
right place at the right time. It has no bearing on their talent. I don’t think
we should look at it and feel bitter about it. That’s the way the cookie
crumbles in all professions.”
