Richa Chadha's Kabaddi experience comes in handy for Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari's 'Panga'

After winning accolades Internationally and in India for her role of a commercial sex worker in her recently released film 'Love Sonia', Richa Chadha is now gearing up for Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari's sports drama - 'Panga'.

Richa recently wrapped up the first schedule of the film in Bhopal and will join back the team in February. Both Kangana Ranaut and Richa Chadha will take lessons in Kabaddi during this time. Interestingly, this wouldn't be Richa's first brush with Kabaddi as she played the Indian sport a lot during her school days. 

Richa is currently busy prepping for her role in 'Panga' and her school-practice is helping her a lot to achieve the goal. 

Speaking about it, Richa said, “It’s been amazing to work with professional players. We are working with a senior player and senior coach sir too. They have been training us extensively in the sport. I have had some practice of kabbadi back in school which has come in handy, it was something I enjoyed back then too in schools. It’s intensive and not easy, but its surely worth it because of the impact it will create on film. Ashwiny is very thorough. That makes the process even more fun, makes us want to put in that extra effort to look and be as authentic as we can to real life kabbadi players.”
