Radhika Apte Announces Exciting News at BFI London Film Festival

Acclaimed actress Radhika Apte has made headlines with the delightful announcement that she is expecting her first child with her husband, music composer Benedict Taylor. This joyous revelation took place during her recent appearance on the red carpet at the BFI London Film Festival on October 16, where she showcased her baby bump while attending the screening of her latest film, Sister Midnight.

Apte's appearance at the festival was nothing short of stunning. Dressed in an elegant black off-shoulder midi dress and with her hair beautifully styled in a bun, she exuded grace and confidence. Although she did not explicitly mention her pregnancy in her social media posts, simply captioning her photos with "SISTER MIDNIGHT UK Premier #lff2024," the images clearly highlighted her radiant glow and the joyful news.

Radhika Apte and Benedict Taylor, who married in 2012, are known for their relatively private lifestyle despite their successful careers in the entertainment industry. The couple, who divides their time between London and Mumbai, first met in 2011 while Radhika was in London for a sabbatical focusing on contemporary dance. Their relationship blossomed, leading to a small wedding ceremony in 2012, followed by a larger celebration in 2013.

In addition to her exciting personal news, Radhika Apte continues to impress in her professional endeavors. She recently made a cameo appearance in Merry Christmas. Additionally, she is set to star in the revenge thriller series Akka, featuring Keethy Suresh and directed by debutante writer-director Dharmaraj Shetty.

Sister Midnight, the film that brought Radhika to the festival, is described as a "genre-bending comedy" that follows a misanthropic newlywed discovering her primal instincts, leading her into unexpected and humorous scenarios. The film has already garnered attention, having premiered earlier this year at the Cannes Film Festival.
