Richa Sharma is keeping quite busy these days. The model-turned-actress is hopeful that the audience will get back to theatres once good films releases. “Watching a film on a big canvas has its own charm and I am sure the audience will get back to the theatres once we provide them with good content. The fear of the third wave is still there but I am sure we will overcome this soon,” said Richa.
Talking about working with Raajhorshee De in back-to-back films, Richa said, “Raajhorshee is a sorted director who gives a lot of freedom to his cast members. He is super cool on the sets which help us to perform better. He pushed back Maya’s shoot as I had health issues- so as a director he is supportive and accommodative too.”
