Her comments irked many TV actors and celebs and the latest one who seems to have not liked it is producer Ekta Kapoor. The TV Czarina had previously shared actress Sayantani Ghosh for her reaction to Radhika’s comments and had posted on social media, “Sad!!!! N Shameful actors have no respect for their roots kudos.” Radhika, in an earlier interview had said, “Aap set pe chalo, script garma garam aa rahi hai”

In an interview Sayantani had voiced her opinion on Radhika’s statement saying, “Let me just say I am a huge admirer of her acting prowess. I didn’t see her full interview, but I was a little hurt and disappointed and what I felt upon seeing that I posted underneath her video. Radhika talked about her reasons for transitioning from television to films where she spoke about long working hours, non-availability of scripts, being treated like machines etc. There was also a portion where Radhika’s director told her to do the scene rather than discuss it because it wasn’t a film set where they could do so for three days.”
