Richa Chadha Claims Sanjay Leela Bhansali Has High Standard For Himself; Says ‘When He Comes There Is Silence…’

Richa Chadha has established herself as a critically acclaimed actress in the Hindi film industry. She was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar. The popular show has given her a lot of appreciation and accolades from the audience and critics. She stated that the filmmaker has set a high standard for himself and he will reshoot a scene until he is satisfied with it. Richa also said that there was silence all of a sudden whenever Bhansali entered the set. 

In an interview with Instant Bollywood, Richa said “His sets always have a lot of people because they are grand. So, they have a lot of setting people, a lot of people from the art director’s team who look after the candles, the curtains. Then there are people from the costume team looking after jewellery and other things, and the lighting team. So, there are a lot of people. On an average there are 100- 150 people on his set, which is nothing, and if there are extras, then there will be even more people. There can be 100, 200, 300 extras.”

“What I like about his set is that there is a lot of chaos but when he comes, there is a silent feeling like somebody is here and everybody gets to working. And he has a very high standard, so what I love about him is that he has such a high standard for himself that he will re-shoot something if he doesn’t like it. He doesn’t settle for sure,” she added.
