Radhika Apte, known for her amazing line of work and variety of roles in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Bengali, Marathi and English-language projects, opened up about her personal life and her wedding day. Radhika, who is married to London-based musician Benedict Taylor, in an interview with Femina magazine said that while growing up, she never wanted to get married. Radhika, who had a registered marriage, said that commitment can happen without marriage but she now sees why it is a sacred thing for people. She understands the 'celebration of unity' and 'value of taking vows'.

Apte is not a person who will spend money on fancy clothes (that too for a registered marriage) and wore a dress for the wedding party that was less than Rs. 10,000 (as it was last minute), she revealed in the interview.
