Richa Chadha refused to cut her hair for 'Madam Chief Minister' for THIS reason

Achieving the right look for a political drama is key to creating a more authentic film. And if the first glimpses of Richa Chadha's Madam Chief Minister are anything to go by, one would say that director Subhash Kapoor cracked the right vibe for the film. 

Word has it that on the making stage, Kapoor tried close to 20 looks on Richa Chadha before finalising the current one for the film. 

However, Richa has revealed that instead of cutting her tresses, she opted to wear a wig as her wedding with actor Ali Fazal was scheduled around the time of the film's shoot in April last year.

Talking about it, Richa said, "There is a cute little anecdote behind why I had to wear a wig. The director ideally wanted me to chop my hair and I was ready for it. He wanted a powerful, fuss-free haircut that suited the character. But it was just around then that the date for our marriage got fixed. I realised I would have a mushroom cut by the time it was April 2020, if I had chopped off my hair for the part." 

She added, "Something I have hated since childhood is the mushroom cut. The director very kindly consented for me to use a wig, these are the various wigs we tried for Madam CM."
