"'Ram Leela' is indeed a huge ticket for me. I can't talk much about the film but I feel people spend their whole life to be part of Sanjay's film and I got to work with him in such an initial stage of my career. I feel i am very lucky and happy that people have accepted me," Richa told in an interview.
The 28-year-old was last seen in Anurag Kashyap's "Gangs of Wasseypur" in which she played the character of Nagma Khatoon.
Sharing her experience of working with Bhansali, she said: "He is very strict on the sets and is a thorough professional".
"He is very intelligent. He is aware of fashion and costumes as much as his lenses and cameras," she added.
"Ram Leela" features Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone in the lead roles.
