Radhika Apte says being a new mum is hard

Sharing a picture of expressing milk with the pump in one hand and holding a champagne glass in the other, Radhika Apte wrote, “And now my BAFTAs reality. I have to thank Natasha @tashtash07 for making it possible for me to attend the BAFTAs. She scheduled the itinerary around my breast-pumping timings. She not only accompanied me to the washroom to express milk but more importantly brought me champagne in the loo. It’s hard as is to be a new mum and work, this level of care and sensitivity is rare in our film industry and much appreciated.”
