Richa Chadha recently revealed that she was offered to play the role of Hrithik Roshan`s mother in a film. In her career, the actress has played varied roles but this is an opportunity she chose to let go. In an interview with ABPLive Richa revealed that she was 21 when she was offered to play Hrithik`s mother, an actor who is older to her.
Richa Chadha said that it is unfair to older artists when youngers actors are offered to play senior characters in movies. On being asked if she was angry at the casting director, Richa Chadha said, "Yes, because I was 21 years old. But someone had told him that I play the role of older women nicely. So, without thinking, he just offered me the role. Later, the actor who actually played that part is a very good artist. So I felt that this is wrong that you are taking young and attractive actors and ageing them.”
