Actress Richa Chadha is set to challenge traditional norms as she embraces the dual roles of a professional and a mother. While many actresses in the industry choose to take a hiatus from their careers to focus on motherhood, Richa is determined to continue her work without interruption.
She has signed her next film, an untitled comedy written by Amitosh Nagpal, with production set to begin soon in North India, IANS reported.
Richa commented on balancing work and motherhood, “While I can’t speak for all women, because it depends on each individual what their journey is like, I am determined to get back to work as soon as possible and not take a long break, as I have pending commitments,” she stated. “I take immense inspiration from my own mother, who managed both roles with grace and efficiency. I believe I can handle both duties effectively as well because it depends on the kind of support system you have around you and how hands-on your partner is. In my case, I feel blessed to have both those things figured out. I also don’t think it is out of the ordinary. I have seen the badass women of Mumbai take local trains well into their 9th month, heading to work, looking perfectly groomed with their gajras intact. I am very inspired by the average Indian woman and don’t want this to be treated as a medical condition; it is not. It is a natural part of life.”
A source close to the production of the film said, “Richa has loved the script, and it’s a really fun concept. The pre-production work is set to take place in August and will go on floors in October. The film is meant to be shot at the brink of winter in the north.”
As Richa prepares for this new chapter in her life, she remains dedicated to her upcoming projects, assuring her fans that her passion for acting and storytelling will not waver.
