Varun Grover recently took to Instagram to highlight Richa Chadha’s consistency in portraying memorable characters through her distinct “sehra” in two different projects. With a nostalgic nod, he connected her roles from the gritty world of “Wasseypur” to the upcoming saga of “Heeramandi,” celebrating her versatility.
Before her breakout role as Nagma Khatoon in the 2012 crime epic “Gangs of Wasseypur,” Richa had been steadily carving her path in the industry with films like “Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!” and “Benny and Babloo.”
However, it was her portrayal in “Gangs of Wasseypur” that catapulted her to fame. Since then, she’s been a part of numerous successful ventures, including the beloved “Fukrey” series, “Ramleela,” “Masaan,” “Main Aur Charles,” and “Madam Chief Minister.”
Her latest endeavor, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s “Heeramandi,” promises to be another milestone in her career. The web series boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including Richa, Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Sanjeeda Shaikh, and Sharmin Segal, along with the much-awaited return of Fardeen Khan.
“Heeramandi” is set to premiere on Netflix on May 1, inviting audiences into a captivating narrative crafted by Bhansali’s vision.
