Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal, who is said to tie the knot soon, are also known for their rich filmography including some pathbreaking projects both nationally and internationally and the duo are now all set to embark on the journey of becoming producers too.
Richa has throughout her career achieved and delivered roles that were way ahead of their time and were always one of the first to dabble in new formats of content. On the other hand, Ali has been proving his mettle as an actor in back-to-back projects and has also been breaking glass ceilings for Indian actors internationally. In a move to celebrate their achievements, the Maratea Film Festival in Italy awarded Richa and Ali with the Outstanding International Talent Awards. The past winners at this Festival include legends like Sophia Loren, Richard Gere, John Landis, and others.

Ali and I both were looking forward to the festival and to be amongst peers who love cinema as much as we do and to celebrate everything about the movies”.

For a platform internationally recognised our work and to give this title/award to us makes me very happy. Glad to know that our work has had an impact in different parts of the world."
