While her larger than life on screen avatar always precedes, very little is known about her background and her modest beginnings. These are the deep roots Richa looks forward to be influenced by and embody whenever give a chance. Panga gave her exactly that, given that Richa’s on-screen character required a Bihari influence on her role, especially her dialect. Richa used her roots from her maternal side being from Bihar to embody that into her role and ace it naturally. Richa’s on-screen efforts are always engraved into her personal life experiences, and this one too comes from there. Her upbringing from a middle-class household in Delhi to stardom in Bollywood has been inspirational but she uses every bit of her traditions when she can on screen.

Speaking about it, Richa said, “Very few people know of my origins and where I come from. My maternal side of the family are Biharis and I have a huge extended family living in that belt. I have always been closely knitted to both my paternal and maternal cultures. Having grown up in a house where I was exposed to a variety of languages, customs and cultures, I’m fortunate I get to use these experiences as an actor, it really is a blessing. My part in Panga is very interesting and happens to be from that region and I was always familiar with the accent, words, language and an understating of a local dialect. I used this to the best of my capacity to bring authenticity to the character”.
