Richa says she’s not angry, but straight forward

Actress Richa Chadha wonders why people assume she is angry by nature, and says she is only a straight-forward person who speaks her mind.

Asked why she often lands up having arguments with the media, Richa said: “I don’t get angry. I am a straight-forward person and I always speak my mind, but I feel media is no less either.“Since I am a straight forward person, people often assume that I am angry by nature, especially when you play a character like Bholi Punjaban from

Fukrey, who is very outspoken. So, it makes a certain kind of image of an actor, but I am not like that.” Clarifying her stand, Richa said, “I feel image is not self-made. It’s not my problem that people don’t remember me for films like Masaan, but they only remember me for film like

Fukrey. I have done both kind of films, so the audience sees you in a certain kind of image and identify you with that kind of image only.“If they don’t want to remember me in other kinds of role then I can’t do much about that. So there is no conscious strategy with that. If a film comes my way and I like the subject, then I do that film.”

Richa will next be seen in the film Jia Aur Jia. She also said that the team of the film has revamped an old Hindi song Jia

ho... Jia oh Jia kuch bol do from the

1961 film Jab Pyar Kisi Se Hota

Hai, starring Dev Anand and Asha Parekh.
