Radhika Apte is one actress known for her unconventional choice of characters and films and the actress will soon be seen on the big screen in Akshay Kumar's 'PadMan' too. The actress, who will be seen playing Akshay's wife, in a recent interview couldn't stop gushing about the director of the film, R. Balki. She said, “The film will be an eye-opener. I feel proud to be part of a project, which is very informative for me as well. Balki has treated this topic with sensitivity. Also, Akshay is the right person to play this role; he has great appeal.”

Talking about her career and the work she is accepting, she said, “Right now, I am not accepting a lot of work I have done a lot of work last year. I have just finished shooting for 'Baazaar', Sriram Raghavan’s next film. Now, I want to wait and watch what comes my way. I am looking for something that will excite me.” On the topic of being an actress for a while now, she said, “It’s an expensive job. People think we make a lot of money but we also have to spend a lot of money too. You have to take care of your looks, make-up, skin, appearances and trainers.” However, she was quick to add, “It is part and parcel of my job because I am in the film business. You will never see me dressed up when I go out with my friends or dinner. That’s a choice I have made."
