Radhika Apte seems to be all set to play yet another bold, steely and memorable character. On the occasion of Women’s Day this year, the actress announced her next film, Mrs Undercover, and unveiled the intriguing first look poster of the same.

The poster sees Radhika as the titular protagonist, dressed in a simple traditional attire and brandishing what seems to be a wooden ladle. The post was captioned “A housewife, a fearless agent and a hero? Well, she can be all! This #WomensDay, celebrating the undercover superheroes of our lives!”.

Check out the first look poster of Mrs Undercover below:

The upcoming film, a spy comedy, will see Radhika essay the role of a retired undercover agent named Durga, who is called back into the job almost a decade after her retirement. In those ten years, Durga’s life becomes completely altered, as she becomes a submissive wife to her demanding husband, and spends her days taking care of him, their son and her in-laws. Sumeet Vyas stars as the antagonist, while Rajesh Sharma portrays the head of the special force units that recruits Durga. Saheb Chatterjee also features in the film.

The upcoming film is written and directed by debutant Anushree Mehta. In a statement, she said “With Mrs. Undercover, I want to celebrate the amazing quality of multitasking that is imbibed in the system of every woman and this film is a story of such a multitasker housewife who also happens to be a fun, entertaining and action-packed undercover spy”.

The filmmaker also added that through the film, she wanted to both entertain and empower viewers. She called the film her action packed tribute to the powerhouse called women. The upcoming film is bankrolled by B4U Motion Pictures in association with Jaadugar Films and Knight Sky Movie.

Mrs Undercover will be available for streaming on ZEE5 soon. The makers are yet to announce the film’s release date.
