Food for Thought: Radhika Apte Is in Your Paneer Too!
Zomato - 1, Netflix - 2 and Radhika Apte - 100!
You may not have seen all of the Netflix originals featuring Radhika Apte (Lust Stories, Sacred Games, Ghoul) but if you’ve not seen the ‘Radhika Apte is everywhere’ memes, you’re definitely living under a rock. The actor is being trolled for frequently featuring in the Indian projects of Netflix. But the streaming site conjured a clever spoof to troll the trolls.
The video gives us a sneak peek behind the scenes of Omnipresent, a parody project from Netflix where Radhika plays every character in the story from an oppressed villager to an evil corporate executive - Radhika Apt Hai!
Now brands have started piggybacking off this mockery. Zomato, the food outlets aggregator known for its inventive creatives also decided to jump on the bandwagon.
Of course, vegetarians are definitely aware of the versatility of paneer. But you gotta hand the award to the social media team of Netflix. It was swift with its savage reply.
The whole world seems to be a jigsaw puzzle and Radhika Apte completes the picture. Behold the digital entertainment world’s sinister and subversive plot. The truth is difficult to digest but Radhika Apte is taking over the world!
Now, that’s food for thought.
