 After
superhits like Mayakkam Enna and Osthe, Richa is back with a
bang in Biriyani. The actress says that she was focusing on
other language films and therefore, was not able to accept more
offers in Tamil. Now, the leggy lass is set to rock K’town once
again! She explains, “Actually, I was approached by Venkat
Prabhu for Mankatha. I missed the opportunity as I had given my
dates for Mayakkam Enna. I know that I missed doing a big film
with Venkat Prabhu. But, he ensured that we would team up in
future. When he approached me for Biriyani, I didn’t even think
for a second. I am lucky to be part of Venkat Prabhu’s team.”
On her role, she says, “Usually Venkat Prabhu’s films have more
scope for the boys. But, I have a prominent role to play and a
lot of scope for my acting skills. We will be shooting for the
film later this month. I am sure the shooting will be unlimited
fun.” After pairing up with sensational actors like Simbu and
Dhanush, she is joining hands with yet another sensation, Karthi.
“All the young actors are immensely talented
and Karthi is among the top ones. I wouldn’t want to miss out on
Suriya — I would like to team up with him as soon as possible as
he is one of my favourite stars.”
Richa has shed some extra kilos for Biriyani. She is excited
about her new toned look. “You will see the actual me in
Biriyani,” she exclaims, adding, “I am much slimmer now. I used
to be slim once, but then, I had no time for workouts while I
was shooting for Mayakkam Enna and Osthe. Now I make the time
for regular workouts — I want to ensure that I look
refreshing.”Richa is a tech freak and her great indulgence is
shoes. “Most of the time I am busy with my MacBook Air. It’s so
handy and entertaining. I have a huge craze for shoes. I have
collected innumerable varieties of shoes, even though I might
never wear them all.” |
