While talking of off-beat Bollywood actors, Richa Chadha’s name is bound to come up. She’s one actress who opted for the path less traveled when it came to making her place in the film industry. But today, she has come a long way from being the supporting actress in Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye! to being the solo lead in her upcoming movie, Cabaret. 

Speaking to film critic Anupama Chopra on her YouTube show, Facetime, Richa recently dropped her guard and spoke her heart out.  

Here are excerpts from her interview, or should we say excerpts from a ‘session of badass-ery’.
