Richa
Chadha
who
has
many
strong
performances
to
her
credit,
in
her
recent
interview
expressed
her
desire
to
take
up
films
which
give
her
an
opportunity
to
use
her
dance
skills
as
an
artiste.
The
Gangs
Of
Wasseypur
actress
revealed
that
she
is
a
trained
dancer
and
spoke
about
how
it
has
helped
her
to
be
an
able
performer.
Speaking
with
Hindustan
Times,
Richa
said,
"I
learnt
dance
in
Delhi
for
10
years,
starting
from
the
age
of
six,
straight
up
till
I
was
in
high
school.
Today,
I
can
confidently
say
that
the
rhythm
that
it
introduced
in
my
body
has
made
me
an
able
performer."
She
went
on
to
say
that
she
finds
it
quite
puzzling
and
amusing
that
she
has
done
any
films
that
tapped
into
her
potential
as
a
dancer.
"Also,
I
haven't
chosen
films
that
consciously
have
a
lot
of
songs
or
items
and
songs.
I
guess
that
is
one
of
the
reasons
as
well," the
actress
said
adding
that
she
hopes
to
take
up
a
film
in
the
future
someday
which
will
allow
her
to
explore
dancing
on
screen.
She
said
that
dance
has
helped
her
appreciate
her
body
and
given
her
a
lot
of
grace.
"It
has
helped
me
be
agile,
and
flexible.
It
has
also
helped
me
mentally
in
appreciating
classical
forms
because
Indian
classical
forms
are
by
far
the
most
evolved
dance
form
anywhere
in
the
world," the
tabloid
quoted
on
as
saying.
Further,
Richa
revealed
that
it
was
her
grandfather
who
pushed
her
into
taking
up
dance
by
citing
examples
of
stellar
actresses
Waheeda
Rehman,
Vyjayanthimala,
Madhuri
Dixit
and
Asha
Parekh
who
are
also
great
dancers.
