Radhikka revealed that she was spotted on Facebook. She said, "There was this casting person who sent me a direct message for an audition in Delhi. Badi shady si jagah pe audition ho raha tha toh main uss time Crime Patrol bada dekhti thi. Toh main aapne do friends ke saath gayi hockey sticks leke. Delhi main thoda pitaayi ka chalta hai (There was this casting person who sent me a direct message for an audition in Delhi. The audition was taking place at a rather shady location, and at that time, I used to watch a lot of Crime Patrol. So I went with two of my friends, carrying hockey sticks. In Delhi, getting into a scuffle isn’t uncommon)."

She added, "Maine bula liya friends ko ki main andar jaaungi fir tum peeche se aake, aur agle din pura newspaper ke front page pe hum hi hum. But main ghussi toh dekha vahan sachmein audition ho raha tha for a television show. Then I got awkward. I was about to leave, but they called my name (I said to my friends that I’ll just walk in, and you follow me from behind — and the next day, we’ll be all over the front page of the newspaper. But when I entered, I realised there was an actual audition going on for a television show. Then I got awkward. I was about to leave, but they called my name)."
