Richa and I’ll get hitched when we think it’s time: Ali
They have been going strong for over three years now and Ali Fazal is not just in love with Richa Chadha the person, but also the kind of artiste that she is. And that's the reason why Ali, who has collaborated with Richa in the Fukrey series, looks forward to working with her again.
“We both would love to collaborate but things do not always happen as you want them to. Bollywood is a welcoming industry but not an easy one to survive in. Waise hum dono ko kaam mil jaata hain wahi kaafi hain,” he jokes before adding, “We are both different individuals and our work spaces are also not same. It always helps when you work with people you know because that comfort helps in better collaboration but whether and when we get that opportunity is something we can’t say. However, one thing is for sure that we won’t do a project just because we want to work together. The story needs to impress both of us. And yes, we would love to work together. In fact, we were very close to doing something but somehow it did not happen.”
Ali also doesn’t miss a chance to praise Richa’s acting prowess. “She is focused, extremely talented and a natural performer who is always reinventing herself with every character. She is very courageous, too. At such a young age and in the initial years of her career she took a risk with a film like Gangs of Wasseypur (2012), played an older woman in it and also pulled it off so well. There’s so much to learn from her,” says the actor, adding that he is happy to have someone like her in his life. Since they have been together for quite some time, they are often bombarded with questions about their plans of settling down. But Ali says that they don’t have marriage plans as of now and are kind of weary about answering the same question again and again.
“We’re two mature individuals, so we know what do we want to do, how and when we want to do certain things? Our families are cooperative, they are understanding and are ready to give us time. I don’t understand that if they can, why can’t the world? When we think that it’s time, we’ll get hitched and also let everyone know,” he signs off.
Richa is focused, extremely talented and a natural performer who is always reinventing herself with every character. She is very courageous, too.
