Due to her shooting schedule for "Cabaret ", produced by Pooja Bhatt and Bhushan Kumar, the "Tamanchey " actress will be missing the screening of her critically acclaimed Neeraj Ghaywan directorial.
"'Masaan' is a film which is closest to my heart. I took a lot of time to detach the character of Devi from me. Even now I am not sure whether I have totally phased that out. Hence not being able to go as a support to festivals like this for a movie of this caliber, is rather disappointing. I wish the team of 'Masaan' at Busan best wishes, " Richa said in a statement.
"Masaan " follows a group of people living in Varanasi, which reserves a cruel punishment for those who play with moral traditions and bagged two awards at Cannes, including a debut director award for Ghaywan.
