Big B praises Richa Chadda
MUMBAI: She has wowed the audience back-to-back with her distinctive performances. Now, actor Richa Chadda has won another admirer in Amitabh Bachchan, who not only liked her performance in Goliyon in Rasleela Ram-Leela but also sent across a handwritten note congratulating her on her performance.
Chadda, who portrayed the character of Raseela Bhabhi in the film has always been applauded by the industry for her work, so much so that she took away the Filmfare Award for Best Actor (Debut) for her performance in Gangs of Wasseypur.
However, happy with the recent compliment from the shahensha Chadda said, “Amitabhji has met me earlier and has always been generous with praise and has told me he liked my works. For Ram-Leela, he sent me a note and a bouquet of flowers which is a huge deal for me since one can only dream about such a thing.”
