She graduated with a diploma in acting from Actor Prepares and got her professional portfolio done by one of India’s top fashion photographers. From the day her portfolio was released in March 2009, Richa has been swamped with offers of fashion ads for billboards of national brand campaigns and TV commercials. She hopped three cities over a course of ten days doing fashion ad shoots and on day ten….March 20, 2008 which also happened to be her birthday, she successfully landed the coveted female lead role in the upcoming Tollywood film, called ‘Leader’ under the direction of Sekhar Kammula who nationally is known as a critically acclaimed director.

The audio launch on November 22nd was a huge success attended by many celebrities and gave the public the first look at this Sekhar Kammula heroine. Richa impressed the media who calling her ‘ravishing’ and ‘cynosure of all eyes’ at the audio release event.

“It has been a wonderful learning experience for me. My director, assistant director, the crew and my costar Rana have made me feel so special in these 7-9 months. And lo behold… I learned a lot of acting….real fast. My character is a young corporate Indian woman who is intelligent, smart and confident, who's tough on the outside, but soft on the inside”. She adds, “I had to learn Telugu, in order to lipsync and give the most appropriate expressions, but Co-Director, Praveena, was like a shadow guiding me. I can actually speak pretty manageable Telugu. I really like Hyderabad and have grown attached to its warm people.” -- Richa Gangopadhyay-Actress, Model, Multi-Talented Artist

“Richa…Your resume is very impressive as you have participated and excelled in a wide plethora of disciplines. Apart from accolades in Beauty pageants you have done well in extra curricular activities. Performing in various stage shows hones one’s confidence level and readies them to face the camera. Your portfolio pictures do full justice to the immense talent that you possess. And once again…congratulations on having won the Miss India USA title.” -- Ashutosh Gowariker, Award-winning Bollywood Director: Jodha-Akbar, Lagaan, What’s Your Rashi?
