Richa Chadha Pledges to Support Independent Films

Bollywood actor Richa Chadha is noted for taking pathbreaking film roles. She has worked in Gangs of Wasseypur, Masaan, Fukrey and many more. Richa now intends to develop more independent films with heavier themes and participate in them, but this time as a producer.

As producer, Richa has plans to support ideas having compelling plots and characters. A leading media house quoted Richa saying, “Artists often change how they feel and evolve and so they realise who they are and who they are not. Now, I feel I can and have taken baby steps in backing films and scripts I believe in and I am in a place where I can support more independent films. At the beginning one’s career, one has often heard stuff like ‘Oh your work is ahead of its times’. Perhaps time has caught up and everyone is doing good independent films now.”

Richa also shared her the agenda of her production house. Both as an actor and as a producer, I wish to be part of good stories. One of the agendas of the production house is to bridge that gap between a good story and an audience.”

Coming on the professional front, the Richa Chadha along with her husband Ali fazal recently came on board as producers for their next, The Underbug. The film premiered at the Slamdance Film Festival in Los Angeles. It is their second production under Pushing Buttons Studios.
