Mom-To-Be Richa Chadha Says Ali Fazal Will Make An 'Incredible Father': 'He Is A Man Of Character'

Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal are expecting their first child together. The Heeramandi actress recently opened up about her pregnancy and said that Ali will make an incredible father. She said that she is doing well and is excited for this new phase in her life.

Talking to the Hindustan Times about Ali Fazal, Richa said, “I am blessed to have a partner like him. Whenever anyone says anything good about Ali, no one is ever surprised because he is that person. He is a man of character, as involved in the house as I am. Now that he will have a family of his own, he is very excited. I think he will make an incredible father.”

“I go with the flow. Whatever Ali and I do, we do with a lot of fluid movement, it’s all organic. We are both excited for this new phase. I am not very American about this. I have seen my mom have a second child, my younger brother, and go back to working in 40 days. I have seen all women in my family just give birth and go back to living their lives as they would. I don’t want to stress about it too,” she added.

Speaking about the advice she has been receiving, she said, “When you are pregnant and it starts to show, it’s like an invitation for unsolicited advice from everywhere, everyone has experienced this in some way, or they have had it happen in the family. Everyone has an experience in this regard which they want to share.”

Richa also spoke about promoting her upcoming projects amid her pregnancy and said, “I think I have been doing well. When we went to the Sundance Film Festival in January this year, only Ali and I knew about the pregnancy, no one else. It was more challenging because of sub-zero temperatures, a lot of uphill walking. Now with the star cast of my show knowing, they have been sweet and accommodating, they keep asking if I need anything. It’s got easier since people got to know. I worked hard for the show and wanted to be there to promote it.”

Richa will soon be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi with Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Sanjeeda Shaikh, Shekhar Suman and Fardeen Khan among others.
