In a media interaction, Richa Chadha said that it is heartening to see actresses like Taapsee Pannu and Bhumi Pednekar take on roles of older women on the big screen. When Richa was all of 24, she played a mother and a grandmother in the two-part Gangs of Wasseypur series which marked her breakthrough in Hindi films.
"I feel happy that today actresses are able to take on more diverse and challenging parts. I think it is fantastic because really, the age of the actors is here, the age of good content is here. The fact that there are actresses like Taapsee and Bhumi who are now playing older characters on-screen is pretty remarkable," Richa Chadha told IANS.

Richa Chadha concluded: "They are doing roles that are not considered glamorous in a conventional sense. Everyone has done it... From Deepika (Padukone) to Alia (Bhatt), and I think it's a great phase for actresses in the industry."
Krishika Lulla was also spotted at the same restaurant with husband Sunil Lulla in Bandra, Mumbai. The producer couple was snapped in their casual outfits.
