Richa to start shooting 'Chalk n Duster' soon

Richa Chadha, who has completed shooting Pooja Bhatt's production "Cabaret", says she has signed up "Chalk n Duster", which is Bollywood's well-known makeup artist Subhash Singh's maiden production venture.

Also featuring veteran actress Shabana Azmi, "Chalk n Duster" will see Richa in a cameo role.

"Yes, it's true I have signed the film. I'm yet to read the whole script. It was impossible for me to say no to Subhashji and Shabanaji. I shall start shooting soon," Richa said in a statement.

The film also features Juhi Chawla, Anupam Kher, Jackie Shroff, Zarina Wahab, Aarya Babbar and Divya Dutta.

Highlighting the hardships of teachers, "Chalk n Duster" not only throws light on their day-to-day lives, but also talks about the education system and society norms.
