Before beginning her career in movies, Richa Chadha nearly conducted an internship interview with Abhay Deol

In a recent interview, Richa Chadha discussed her life in Mumbai and how she got into acting. Before being cast in Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!, Richa claimed she first tried her hand at acting in a play. The 2008 film featuring Abhay Deol was Richa’s acting debut. Richa admitted that when she was an intern, she came close to interviewing Abhay for a magazine. The actor remembered speaking with her on the phone months before they were paired up in a movie.

Richa declared that she wished to work as a journalist. When she was an intern at a magazine, she claimed she first spoke with Abhay Deol. Richa also explained why Abhay turned down her request for a “fashion feature” at the time because he had already committed to movies like Dev D.

The last time I phoned Abhay for an interview, I said, “Sir, we want to do an inside fashion piece with you. I doubt even Abhay knows that. By that time, he had worked on a few movies, including Socha Na Tha and Ahista Ahista. And he was ascending. He got up with movies like Dev D. He said, “Give me a cover then, not now,” since “I have multiple projects as the lead next year.”

The guy has lucidity, I thought. I started working with him six months later. That was really great,” Richa stated in an interview for The Bombay Journey on Mashable India.

She also discussed their Oye Lucky! appearance along with Abhay. Oh, luck! “I guess everyone is anxious for their debut movie, and I entered thinking he was Dharmendra’s nephew. He was quite charming. I enjoyed working on that movie. Some of the other actors and I are still friends,” Richa stated.

The Great Indian Murder, a new Disney+ Hotstar series, was where Richa was last seen. She has appeared in movies including Masaan, Fukrey, and Gangs of Wasseypur. Among her forthcoming projects is the third chapter of the Fukrey franchise, and she also has the fourth season of the web series, Inside Edge.

Allu Arjun was ‘unnecessarily dragged’ into the Pushpa 2 stampede scandal, according to Boney Kapoor: “The crowd was the only reason for it.”

Boney Kapoor has said that it was wrong to drag Allu Arjun in the Sandhya Theatre stampede case, adding that the death of the fan happened due to the crowd.
Filmmaker Boney Kapoor has lent his weight behind Telugu star Allu Arjun in connection with his recent legal troubles linked to the death of a fan at the premiere of his film, Pushpa 2: The Rule. Boney says that Arjun was ‘unnecessarily dragged’ in the case when the death was only due to the large crowd gathered there.

Boney Kapoor defends Allu Arjun

Speaking at the Galatta Plus roundtable for filmmakers, Boney detailed his introduction to South Indian fans’ mania for the big stars. “When I first saw, Ajith’s film releasing at 1 in the morning. I was shocked to see 20-25k people outside the theatre. After I came out of the show around 3.30-4am, there were still that many people outside. I am told the same thing happens with films of Rajinikanth, Chiranjeevi, or present-day stars like Jr NTR, Ram Charan, Mahesh Babu,” he said.

Linking it to the incident for which Allu Arjun was arrested, Boney then added, “Ticket rates are inflated on the first two days or at least the first day for extra shows. That is why this situation has arisen where unnecessarily Allu Arjun was dragged and blamed for the death of a fan. It was only because of the crowd that had gathered to see the film.”

What is the Pushpa 2 stampede case

On December 4, the eve of Pushpa 2’s release, a special show of the film was kept for the fans at Hyderabad’s Sandhya Theatre. Arjun reached the theatre himself with co-star Rashmika Mandanna and wife Sneha Reddy. Police say that due to the star’s presence, crowd gathered at the theatre, leading to a stampede-like situation, which caused the death of a 35-year-old woman. The state government has claimed that Arjun appeared at the theatre despite not being permitted to and refused to leave after being told of the situation. Arjun has denied the allegations.

The actor was arrested last month on the charges of culpable homicide among other things. But he was released the following day after the Telangana High Court granted him interim bail. The case is currently under investigation.

About Pushpa 2: The Rule

Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 2: The Rule stars Allu Arjun, Rashmika, and Fahadh Faasil. The sequel to the 2021 hit, Pushpa: The Rise, part 2 has been an even bigger box office success. As of January 1, the film has earned ₹1760 crore worldwide, making it the third-highest-grossing Indian film ever.
