While sharing pictures from the event on social media, Radhika kept her caption simple, avoiding any direct mention of her pregnancy. She wrote, “SISTER MIDNIGHT UK Premier #lff2024,” showing off her stunning appearance alongside the cast and crew of the film. Fans, however, were quick to shower her with congratulations.

Radhika Apte and Benedict Taylor, a British violinist and composer, have been married since 2012. The couple met in London in 2011 when Radhika was on a sabbatical to study contemporary dance, and they have since divided their time between London and Mumbai. They had a small wedding in 2012, followed by an official ceremony in 2013.
On the work front, Radhika recently appeared in a cameo in Merry Christmas, directed by Sriram Raghavan and starring Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi. She also stars in the upcoming YRF Entertainment revenge thriller Akka alongside Keerthy Suresh. Sister Midnight, directed by Karan Kandhari, is a genre-bending comedy about a misanthropic newlywed and premiered at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year.
