Richa Chadha slams a journalist for Fawad Khan

Actress Richa Chadha who is known for her fiery disposition recently came to Pakistani heartthrob Fawad Khan’s rescue. In a surprising turn of events, the ‘Masaan’ beauty slammed a journalist to protect the ‘Kapoor and Sons’ actor. The actors were attending the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne Press Conference 2016 along with other Bollywood celebrities.

At the press conference, a journalist put forward her question to Fawad Khan. He was asked to comment on how India had adopted westernisation in terms of kissing scenes and romance in films and also how the cultures of India and Pakistan were quite different from each other. Fawad was left bemused by the questions when the ‘Fukrey’ star decided to cut in to answer on his behalf.

Richa Chadha said, “I would like to answer that. Sorry, I am cutting in. You know we were colonised by the British for a really long time. It’s a part of the..I am sorry if I am offending anybody here, but if you look at worldwide history, every time the British left an empire, they divided it. Whether it was North Korea or South Korea, then there was Germany. It is a part of the strategy to keep political unrest to sort of maintain a global kind of.”

She further added, “I am sorry but your question to me doesn’t make sense because I will have far more in common with Fawad because I am from the North of India than I will have with somebody who is a tam brah or maybe Malayali or from the North East. I think we should avoid stereotyping in questioning or creating some kind of contradiction here because the whole intent and especially art does not really have any borders.”

This stand taken up by Richa Chadha to protect Fawad is truly inspirational in the world that is torn apart by border conflicts. Looks like the new generation of actors are all into supporting and holding each other’s back when needed.
