Richa Chadha's next film is based on the second wave of Covid that impacted India in 2021

Richa Chadha will be seen playing a frontline worker during the second wave of the Covid crisis in an untitled film under the banner of Zee Studios. Richa says, “This is based on those real incidents that we all witnessed during the second wave of Covid. While there was loss and despair, there was also hope. In fact, I was so moved by this kindness of strangers that I started The Kindry, a small social media initiative that amplified stories of goodness, selflessness through the second wave. The film takes a hard look at our lives during the pandemic, where we were afraid to be human. There was enforced and mandatory distance. It talks about the doctors and nurses who were doing their job selflessly. I am honoured to play the role of one such resilient nurse.”
