Richa Chadha is set to play the role of a detective in an upcoming crime-thriller series.

Although the details are still under wraps but according to industry sources the actor “will soon be seen heading a gripping crime thriller series for a leading OTT platform.” Richa has already begun shooting for the show.

A source close to the development shared, “After Heeramandi and post pregnancy, Richa was keen to explore something radically different. The role of a detective allows her to tap into a sharp, restrained, and cerebral space.”

“It’s a character that demands both emotional intelligence and quiet intensity qualities she naturally brings to the screen. She has already started filming, and the look and tonality are very distinct from anything she has done before,” they added.

Richa was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi where she played the role of the courtesan Lajjo.
