Radhika Apte goes glam for Bazaar role

Radhika Apte, who often picks up the most unconventional roles for herself, seems to be marching ahead full steam. The actress, who has nearly finished shooting for Bazaar, will be seen in a dolled-up avatar for the first time in this movie.

“Bazaar is a very different project for me,” says Radhika. “I’ve never done anything like this before. I have a very glamorous role for the first time. The film is about a lot of conventional norms, which are very relevant to the film.”

Set against the tumultuous world of stock trading, the film stars Saif Ali Khan and will mark the debut of Rohan Mehra, the son of late actor Vinod Mehra.

Ask Radhika how it was to work with Saif, and she says, “My equation with him has been great. He’s a great co-star to work with.”

About her role, she adds, “I have different shades in this film. You will get to know more once you watch it. I don’t have too many scenes with Chitrangada (Singh); I have more with Saif and Rohan.”

Directed by Gauravv K. Chawla, and produced by Nikkhil Advani, Bazaar is reportedly inspired by the 2013 film The Wolf of Wall Street.
