Richa Chadha to play Paro in Sudhir Mishra's 'Daasdev'

Mumbai: Having established herself as a bankable Bollywood star, actor 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 Richa Chadha as Paro, Aditi Rao Hydari as Chandramukhi and Rahul Bhat as Daasdev.

Richa 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, DaasDev and Love Sonia. When asked Richa 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."

Richa Chadha will be reprising her iconic role of Bholi Punjaban in Fukrey Returns. It is set to release on December 8.
