The actress also played a TV journalist in her first film 'Antaheen', directed by Aniruddha, which fetched her a National award.

Asked if she feared being typecast, she said, "It is a mere coincidence that I am back into Bengali films with 'Pendulam' where I again play the character of a journalist."

Radhika said that she has developed a love affair with Bengali films and especially Bengali directors, whom she finds unmatched in sensitivity and intensity.

Her second film 'Pendulam' is being directed by Soukarjo Ghoshal, who will make his directorial debut with the movie.

"The film deals with interplay of different emotions and mood swings - a very new concept which I always come across when I get to act in Bengali movies," Radhika said.

Soukarjo on his part said, "I principally cast Radhika taking into consideration her very Bengali look and easy-going girl-next-door image. The film's subtext chronicles the city of Kolkata as it shifts through time to emerge as a complex psychological allegory of a decadent metropolis." MORE
