Oscar or not, Richa and Ali really did enjoy themselves at the Vanity Fair after party and other events.

On Ali Fazal's Instagram, there's a glimpse of just how much fun it was at the WME party - the couple were accidentally photobombed by Leonardo DiCaprio.
"But I'll tell you one thing. We did get to observe how different the work ethics are in Hollywood as compared to Indian cinema which we rather subserviently refer to as 'Bollywood'. Can't we find a term more organic and less imitative for Hindi cinema?" Richa Chadha added.
About Victoria & Abdul, Richa said that the movie has made her proud of Ali Fazal: "Tell me how many Indian actors get to play the title role in a Hollywood film and that too opposite the indomitable Judi Dench? I am very proud of Ali and the film. The film got these Oscar nominations. For the rest of his life we can be proud of the fact that Ali was showcased for the nominations in two major categories."
