An industry insider says, "Richa was supposed to be back in India on Sunday, but she has decided to postpone her return flight. She is taking a detour to Los Angeles as Franck will be there to film a French movie. She will be in LA for three days and then fly back to Mumbai. The duo stay and work in two different countries, so they don't want to let go of any opportunity to spend time with each other."

Richa extending her stay in the US has got nothing to do with Franck, claims a source close to the actress. "She is indeed heading to LA for some personal work and it is a coincidence that Franck will also be there around the same time. They are good friends and nothing is brewing between them," the source adds. Richa did not respond to our text messages.
