On the occasion of Valentine라이브 바카라 Day, February 14, actress Richa Chadha announced her next film which is a love story. The comedy drama is tentatively titled Akhri Somvaar. Apart from starring in the film, Richa has turned writer for it.
It was during the second lockdown, when Richa was not satisfied with just becoming a producer, she penned the script of Akhri Somvaar.
The story of Akhri Somvaar is about a successful reality TV producer who desperately wants to get married after someone at work calls her a 'childless cat lady'.
Speaking about Akhri Somwar, Richa, in a statement, shared, " From my experiences of growing up in a middle-classs Punjabi household, from my childhood, watching older cousins be set-up for arranged marriages, emerged this deeply personal story that I think a lot of families will resonate with.''
She added, ''When we garduate from college, we are full of dreams and ambitions. Somehow those dreams get dulled when we enter the job market and before you know it, your'e in your mid-30s hoping to have both a career and a husband/family but society thinks it's too late and you become jaded because the dreams are now not achievable. It is a slice-of-life story, about coming undone and coming together.''
Richa further said, ''I think there is currently a dearth of family entertainment. And I think as an actor, my comic timing has been greatly under-utilized. Speaking as a producer, it is a monetizable asset''.
Akhri Somwar promises to be a ''refreshing take on love, societal expectations, and the lengths one goes to for a dream wedding.''
The director and rest of the cast are yet to be revealed.
