Box-office Pressure Depends On The Film: Richa Chadha

Darpan News Desk IANS, 29 Aug, 2019 08:15 PM
  • Box-office Pressure Depends On The Film: Richa Chadha

Actress Richa Chadha says that box-office pressure depends entirely depends on the project.


Asked if she feels pressurised over box-office numbers, Richa told IANS: "Well, it depends on the film. For 'Fukrey' I was feeling pressure for box-office numbers because it was a commercial film.


It was a comedy and a youth film. But when I have 'Masaan' releasing, I don't take box-office pressure because the ecosystem is not designed for a film at that scale to touch a (Rs) 100 (crore bench mark).

 

Rather, what it does stays memorable, relevant and it just becomes a piece of art. It is just a gift that keeps giving. So, it entirely depends on the project."


On the acting front, the 32-year-old actress will next be seen in "Section 375".


The film is based on Section 375 of the Indian Penal Code and Richa plays a public prosecutor fighting to get justice for her client, who claims she was raped by a filmmaker (played by Rahul Bhatt), who is defended by Akshaye Khanna's character in court.
