Indian actress Radhika Apte had her first child, a daughter, with her husband, Benedict Taylor, in December last year. Two months after giving birth, she attended the 78th British Academy Film Awards. Radhika shared pictures on Instagram and talked about balancing her personal and work life.
Radhika posted a picture on Instagram where she holds a champagne glass in one hand and a breast pump in the other and the caption reads, “And now my BAFTAs reality #breastfeeding#postpartum#breastpump. 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. “

Radhika Pumps Milk In Washroom: Many fans feel sad that, even in the 21st century, she has to pump milk in a washroom. This shows that it has not yet become normal in our country. Fans appreciate her efforts to normalize breast pumping, but they also feel sorry that she has to do it in such an uncomfortable place.
One user comment reads, “It is sad that you have to pump in the washroom in 2025”
Another happy fan wrote, “This is amazing! Thank you for normalizing the struggle!!”
Another concerned fan wrote, “The only issue I see here is that you have to pump at the washroom, every work place should have pumping safe place for mothers otherwise this photo is beautiful especially for mothers”
Radhika With A Glass Of Wine While Breast Pumping: Many fans have criticized her for drinking alcohol while breastfeeding, as it can negatively affect the baby when they consume the milk.
One user wrote, “Ideally you shouldn’t be drinking while breastfeeding babe!!”
Another concerned fan wrote, “I am sorry to say Radhika but you are giving a wrong message through this pic. If you are expressing milk while drinking ,there is a very high chance that teh alcohol will be expressed in the milk and will be transferred to your baby. It is very unhealthy for the baby.”
Another fan jokingly commented, “Who drinks champagne while while breastfeeding?”
