Mumbai:
Bollywood actress Richa Chadha says that cheques handed out by film producers also bounce, but it does not matter to her as she 'does not do films for money'.
"Very few people do films for money, and I am definitely one who doesn't do it for money. I think everyone who has interactions with producers, has experienced cheque bouncing at least once," said Richa at the opening of a wildlife resort.
Richa has acted in films like Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye! and Gangs Of Wasseypur, and is quite happy with her journey in Bollywood so far.
"This industry has given me a lot. My journey as an actress in Bollywood started in 2012 and in these three years I have won several awards including one Filmfare Award for Best Actress, Critics' award for Gangs Of Wasseypur and one Screen award for Fukrey. Masaan has also won two awards at the Cannes International Film Festival," said the 26-year old actress.
Apart from awards, I have also made a lot of money, numerous friends and tremendous fame. I am hoping that you all will see a lot more of me on the screens. I am not waiting for the industry to do something for me. I will take whatever I want from here, on my own," said the Fukrey actress.
Richa has always preferred to work for films which have unique storylines and themes. "I will continue working like how I have been since the beginning of my career. I want to do good films and that's what I do usually," said Richa.
Masaan will hit Indian screens on July 24.
