Richa Chadha to romance Malayalam actor Rajeev Pillai in Shakeela biopic

Richa Chadha, who recently returned from the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne, is currently shooting for her web-series 'Inside Edge 2' and Shakeela biopic. The 'Fukrey' actress has a rather charming young man playing her love interest in the latter, which captures the early life and career of the adult south star.

Rajeev Pillai, a popular model and Malayalam actor will be playing one of the male leads in the film. He had made his debut as a lead actor with 2011 crime thriller, 'City of God', starring Prithviraj Sukumaran. He has had a successful career in the fashion industry, having walked the ramp for several major fashion weeks and has also worked for a few international brands. 

Although not much is known about his role, we are eager to see what this new pairing has in store for us.
