‘Out of my Comfort Zone’: Radhika Apte on playing ‘corrupt cop’ in Monica, O My Darling

In a recent media interview, Radhika Apte spoke about her role of a corrupt cop in her upcoming streaming movie Monica, O My Darling

"This character was very out of my comfort zone, I've never done comedy before and it was very interesting to play the corrupt cop, quite unashamed and unabashed about her values in life, could be probably most opposite of whatever I am. That was very interesting, it was out of my comfort zone but Vasan had faith."

She further mentioned, "You know when your director trusts you, its quite nice to be able to go on set, take risks and try different things even if you fail you don't care because you know it's a safe place to try and explore."

Sharing her experience of working with director Vasan Bala and her character, she says, "I've been wanting to work with Vasan for a very long time. In fact, Vasan was the first few people that I've met in this industry so I've known him for a very long time and hoped that I would get to work on his other films but I didn't."

The film also stars Rajkummar Rao, Huma Qureshi and Sikander Kher in prominent roles. Monica, O My Darling is a neo-noir crime comedy thriller to debut on Netflix on November 11.
