I crave for a normal life: Richa Chadda

From playing the jealous sister of the heroine in Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye! to playing a gangster’s wife in Anurag Kashyap’s two-part revenge saga, Gangs of Wasseypur, and more recently, a mafia don in Fukrey, actor Richa Chadda has certainly come a long way.

From playing the jealous sister of the heroine in Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye! to playing a gangster’s wife in Anurag Kashyap’s two-part revenge saga, Gangs of Wasseypur, and more recently, a mafia don in Fukrey, actor Richa Chadda has certainly come a long way. And the 28-year-old says she is happy with her choice of films. Her next films include Tamanchey, Ishqeria and Ram Leela.

A true blue Delhiite, she says, “I am very happy with the way people are accepting me. I feel very fortunate that I am getting good work. But this too has put a lot of burden of my shoulders. Undoubtedly, my life has changed thanks to Anurag and Gangs of Wasseypur, but I haven’t changed as a person at all. Believe it or not, I am exactly opposite from the kind of loud roles I do on screen.”

As they say, success does come with a price, and Richa, too, seems to be paying it. “To be honest, at times, I crave to lead a normal life and miss it immensely. I love to bargain, but now I just can’t do that. Also now, when I have to shop in Sarojini (Nagar market), I have to change my look by donning two plaits, so that no one recognises me,” she shares.

Has she found the man of her dreams? “I am single and have no time for love. Tell me who would want to be with a girl who literally lives out of the suitcase?” she asks.
