Richa Chadha Gave A Kickass Response When She Was Asked About Aishwarya's Purple Lips At Cannes
From playing a sidey role of Dolly in Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!, to Cannes, Richa Chadha has certainly come a long way. After creating waves at the Film Festival last year for Masaan, the talented actress was there this year as well for her upcoming movie Sarbjit. She was also accompanied by the rest of the cast and crew, including Aishwarya Rai and director Omung Kumar.
She was recently quizzed about how Aishwarya Rai's purple lips garnered massive attention. She spoke about how it's not that important to talk about an actress's choice of lipstick, and rather we should focus on our movies at the festival.
She added, "Like most others, I too focus a lot on fashion and that is why I always make it a point to be well-dressed. However, it¡¯s not smart to focus only on fashion at a film festival, but that¡¯s what happens most of the time because not many of our films make it to the competition section."
Well, that's aptly put, right?
But you can't deny the fact that Aishwarya Rai's 'purple lipstick' look did create quite a lot of buzz and sent the social media in a state of frenzy. In fact, a lot of people even criticised and trolled Aishwarya's choice of makeup, and Richa had quite a response for that as well.
She said, "I didn¡¯t follow this whole issue at all because discussing something like an actress¡¯ lipstick is so unimportant. She has a contract with a skin care brand and if she is going to wear a lipstick ¡ª purple, black, blue or whatever ¡ª it¡¯s her choice. She is doing her job at the end of the day because she is launching a new colour. I think her job was done when people sat down and discussed her purple lipstick for a few days."
