Bollywood beautiful actress Richa Chadha, who hails from a
non-filmy background, tells she feels "ashamed" when somebody calls
her an "outsider" in Bollywood.
"I really feel ashamed when people use this word
'outsider' for people like us. I feel the word 'outsider' shouldn't even exist
in the Indian dictionary. I am a citizen of India, I was born here, I pay my
tax here so then how am I an outsider," Richa revealed.
"It's so sad that we have to use this term for people
who are not born to a film family. It's a term very commonly used by everyone
because it exists and that's a sad state of affair. Even though we are Indians,
we are an outsider. Why is it so," she questioned.
Richa feels it is not easy for actors to get access in
Bollywood if they don't have any filmy background.
"It's very difficult, it's extremely difficult... Apart
from Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar who have made it big, how many people are
not from the (film) business? That's why I have great respect for people like
Ranveer Singh, Irrfan and whosoever has made it on their own."
On the film front, Richa will next be seen in "Fukrey
2".
