Richa Chadha: People would Exploit me, I would Cry about it later

Richa Chadha is known best for her impeccable performances in films like Fukrey, Section 375, to name a few. Besides her professional front, she never misses an opportunity to raise her voice for all the good reasons.

Yesterday, March 08, was celebrated as the  International Women’s Day, and Richa shared her views on the same. Richa starts by saying: "Women's day is really a day that was meant to celebrate women and honor their accomplishments. it was meant to cause sensitivity about gender issues now as we see few marketing people taking advantage of it, asking women to work for free or post for free is quite funny but I still it has relevance because till the time India has equal society we will need something like women's day."

When she was asked to give two pieces of advice to her younger self, the actress answered by saying: 

"Two pieces of advice to my younger self would be always be confident and never be so nice. When I was younger I would be taken for a ride alot, I would believe anybody at face value, I was quite a lallu actually everybody would fooled me, exploit me for my work and talent and I would cry about it later. Now I am smart and sure that there will be people who are smarter and more evil but that doesn't matter because I've learnt how to hold my own and I’ve got the exploiters descending into nothing. Second piece of advice I would like to give myself would be to continue working hard on the mind and on the body and keep reading books because that is a sure short way of getting success in life, that is a thing that distinguishes a normal average performance of somebody very smart, like their ability to read and be knowledgeable and be curious towards life."
