Richa Chadha Exposes Hypocrisy: Recounts ‘Terrible Experience with Female Producer’ Pretending to Be Feminist | Exclusive
Richa Chadha has always supported feminism and spoken out against misogyny in the workplace. She frequently stands up to encourage other actresses in the business. She defended Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in an interview that went viral last year, stating, “Jalte hai log use,” and she also chastised people who made fun of the beauty queen for attending Paris Fashion Week. Richa genuinely treasures the experience she had recently, co-starring and promoting Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar alongside several strong women.
She also attended an exclusive gathering at Dia Mirza Rekhi’s Mumbai home last week with Shabana Azmi, Urmila Matondkar, Konkona Sen Sharma, Divya Dutta, Sandhya Mridul, and Tannishtha Chatterjee. “I want to see you win,” Dia wrote when she posted the pictures to Instagram. Many people saw the post and expressed their support for them, breaking the stigma of female actresses not getting along.
But Richa admits that one woman’s victory does not translate into a victory for her in an exclusive interview with News18 Showsha. “Her win isn’t my victory if it’s a poisonous lady who denigrates everyone else and has been unusually harsh to garner attention and headlines. We ought to honor each person’s development and progress.
Does it, however, occur every time? No,” she frankly informs us. Richa claims that this way of thinking is the result of her numerous negative interactions with strong female celebrities who have wronged her but put up a feminist front on social media. “I don’t suppose I believe that all women are saints. I’ve had some awful encounters with female producers who claim to be feminists on Twitter (now X), and when their checks bounce, the woman remembers.
In addition, the star, who is getting ready to have a mother, says that she doesn’t comprehend “the imposition of sisterhood on people.” “Toxic co-actors have also continuously competed with me by not providing the proper cues and turning off the lights during sequences. I cannot state that my experiences have been consistent or one-dimensional. Sisterhood is a genuine thing that can be created, cultivated, and maintained. But to comprehend and produce that, several people are needed, says Richa.

Richa says, “I think it’s an anti-feminist notion to think that women are not capable of evil.” She is discussing how the definition of feminism has been changed. That is only a stupid thing. Enough nasty ladies are in our vicinity. Women who stand up for rapists are disgusting, depraved, and evil, yet they are frequently in positions of authority. The media frequently provides them with a platform as well. “Am I supposed to just naturally assume that they’re feminists only because they have a vagina?” the Gangs of Wasseypur and Fukrey star asks again. No. I know lots of males who support feminism and plenty of women who are overtly misogynistic and oppressive. It is not a matter of gender.
