What Is Balayya’s Heroine Doing In Hollywood?

Actress Radhika Apte is a pretty well-known face for Telugu audience as she made her indelible mark with films like Rakta Charitra, Dhoni, Legend and Lion. She was seen pairing up with Nandamuri Balakrishna for two of his films( Lion and Legend) and her intrinsic acting prowess made her connect well with South moviegoers. Now, the actress was seen all dolled up and posing with Hollywood stars at the Edinburgh Film Festival and the pictures are leaving her Telugu fans wondering what is Balakrishna’s heroine doing in Hollywood.

Well, the latest and exciting news is that this 33-year-old beauty is all set to plunge into Hollywood where she will be seen playing World War II British spy heroine Nora Baker in an upcoming film, Liberte: A Call To Spy. This prestigious project will be directed by Oscar-nominated director Lydia Dean Pitcher. The actress flew to Film Festival for a UK premiere and shared the photos, expressing her happiness over it on her Instagram handle.

Radhika was also seen clicking pictures along with the real Noor Inayat Khan, also known as, Nora Baker. Nora was the first female wireless operator and British spy who parachuted into Nazi-occupied France and played a prominent role in the French Resistance. Another picture has Radhika posing with her female co-stars where these beautiful people are all ready to depict true incidents happened 75 years ago. The film Liberte: A Call To Spy is all about the time during World War II, when the then UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill convened a spy organization called ‘SOE’ in order to crush the Nazi movement.

The film also features popular stars like Sarah Meghan Thomas(scriptwriter), Stana Katic, Linus Roache and Rossif Sutherland. We hope this Indian dusky beauty, Radhika, will bank a bit from her wise choice of playing an experimental role and currently, in India, she is eminently known for her Netflix appearances such as Sacred Games and Ghoul. Her name is a synonym for the word versatility as she can literally pick any genre and act in any script that’s handed over to her.
