Richa
Chadha
is
one
of
the
Bollywood
celebrities
who
protested
against
Citizenship
(Amendment)
Act
(CAA).
She
recently
starred
in
Panga,
which
featured
Kangana
Ranaut
in
the
lead
role.
For
the
unversed,
Richa
and
Kangana
share
a
different
view
on
the
CAA.
While
Kangana
is
in
support
of
it,
Richa
is
against
the
Act.
When
asked
if
it
was
difficult
for
her
to
work
with
Kangana,
who
doesn't
share
the
same
political
views
as
her,
Richa
told
Pinkvilla,
"It
is
not
necessary
that
your
wavelength
and
thoughts
match
with
everyone...and
everyone
is
entitled
to
their
opinion,
but
on
set,
we
are
professionals.
But
I
am
happy
that
many
citizens
who
are
aware
have
come
forward
to
lead
the
protests
and
spark
a
revolution
of
sorts.
It's
an
onward
journey
from
here
on."
On
a
related
note,
Kangana
had
earlier
slammed
the
CAA
protestors
for
vandalising
public
property
and
had
said,
"In
our
population,
only
three
to
four
per
cent
people
pay
taxes.
The
rest
of
them
are
actually
dependent
on
them.
So,
who
gives
you
the
right
to
burn
buses,
trains,
create
ruckus
in
the
country?
One
bus
costs
a
lot.
It's
not
a
small
amount.
And
the
condition
of
this
country
is
such
that
there
are
so
many,
who
are
dying
of
malnutrition.
It's
not
correct
for
the
people
to
instigate
violence
in
the
name
of
democracy."
She
had
further
said,
"We
are
still
hung
on
to
the
pre-Independence
era.
During
that
time,
going
on
strikes
against
the
people,
who
had
captured
us,
not
paying
taxes,
all
of
this
was
really
cool.
But
today,
because
of
democracy,
your
leaders
have
come
from
within
you,
not
from
Italy
or
Japan."
