Richa stated that she does not know what kind of parenting she wants to resort to and what kind of upbringing she wants to give to her child. She said, “It’s like I’m planning to write a novel and somebody is already asking me what kind of a story I would want to write. You can’t say these things. This is all very new for me.”
Further, the Heeramandi actress expressed that she would wait for the arrival of her child before making any decisions. “So, I guess we’ll figure it all out once our child comes into this world. And I know that it will happen very naturally,” she stated.
