In an exclusive interview with Outlook, actor Richa Chadha talks about her character in the upcoming web series 바카라Candy바카라, her efforts to 바카라humanise바카라 her onscreen characters and also explains why she doesn바카라t like being labelled as a 바카라character actor바카라.
Richa Chadha바카라s endeavour to 바카라humanise바카라 her onscreen characters over the years have, in her own words, probably resulted in being labelled as a 바카라character actor바카라, especially by the 바카라Indian media바카라. Chadha admits she is not particularly fond of the term.
바카라I don바카라t like the constant reference to me as a character actor. I know they mean it as a demotion and it only happens here in India. You don바카라t get to hear other actors being called as a comedy actor or a boy-next-door actor, anywhere else in the world,바카라 she says.
However, she does understand the (increasing) popularity of roles driven by content, not genre or star power, especially ever since the emergence of OTT platforms, which she feels has helped bridge the gap between the 바카라nonsensical saas bahu shows and the Hollywood/international web series바카라.
Chadha will soon be seen in Voot바카라s thriller series, 바카라Candy바카라, which also stars actors Ronit Roy and Manu Rishi. This is the first time that Chadha will be playing the role of a cop.
바카라It was really interesting because it was a new zone for me to try. I have never been a cop before, plus there was a nice single mom angle to it as well. It바카라s got that supernatural thriller element, in the sense that we don바카라t know whether it is a person or a demon committing all the murders,바카라 she says.
Having played a variety of characters in films such as 바카라Gangs Of Wasseypur 1 and 2바카라, 바카라Masaan바카라 and 바카라Panga바카라, Chadha feels it is important for her to be able to 바카라humanise바카라 her characters, which is what makes them so relatable for the audiences.
바카라It's not necessary to empathise with a character. I think we need to humanise the character. I am playing the character of a DCP, who gets posted to a remote location. To understand the situation and character better, I met many cops and spoke to them,바카라 Chadha says explaining that meeting the police officers helped her 바카라internalise바카라 the role.
바카라Of course, when you meet actual people who are doing that job in real life, you just understand and learn so much more. There바카라s more to it than just meets the eye kind of thing. In this case, I learned how someone who is a DCP will interrogate, or go about pushing buttons that get the right answers. These things help you internalise your character,바카라 she says.
