Richa Chadha on playing Paro in modern-day ‘Devdas’

Having established herself as a bankable star, Richa Chadha has been exploring different mediums of filmmaking. Her performance in the video on demand show ‘Inside Edge’ was highly appreciated. Now we will see her next in another contemporary adaptation of the Saratchandra Chattopadhhyay’s classic ‘Devdas’.

Director Sudhir Mishra’s upcoming film ‘Daasdev’ follows a path contrary to the plot of the classic novel but is a fiercely political film that talks about the protagonist’s addiction to power. The film features Chadha as Paro, Aditi Rao Hydari as Chandramukhi and Rahul Bhat as Daasdev.

Chadha has shown her incredible acting capabilities with her versatile roles through different characters and it is an exciting time coming ahead for her with three back to back releases – ‘Fukrey Returns’, ‘Daasdev’ and ‘Lover Sonia’. When asked about the same. she said, ” I am excited that the film is releasing soon. It’s an interesting adaptation. I loved working with Sudhir Mishra. He has mentored so many filmmakers and directed some films that made me want to be an actor when I was growing up.”
