Richa Chadha reveals she chose Lajjo over another character with more screentime in Heeramandi 

In an exclusive interview with Pinkvilla, Richa Chadha revealed how she was offered some other role in the show, but she chose to do Lajjo. She said, "When I was approached for Heeramandi, at the time Sanjay sir was the showrunner and I had been offered another part, one with more screentime for sure. But because an actor also needs to see what's in here that's new for me, I chose Lajjo.”

Further reflecting on her decision, the actress cited examples of ‘gray shade’ characters where she ‘experimented’ like Bholi Punjaban or Tara in Madam Chief Minister.

The actress quipped, “Basically, I get accused of playing only empowered characters, so I felt the need to break that stereotype and surprise the audience. I wanted to play the part of a hopeless romantic and leave the audience with goosebumps. That's exactly what's happening. People are calling me in tears. Hence, when sir told me to come and check this character out, I was immediately drawn to Lajjo. I was certain this would pay off and it has. The love within 24 hours has been overwhelming. Right from industry peers to filmmakers to friends and audiences have sent me such amazing love, I couldn’t be more grateful,” added Richa.
