Richa Chadha opted for a wig instead of chopping her hair for Madam Chief Minister

Richa Chadha‘s Madam Chief Minister is a political drama helmed by Subhash Kapoor. He had cracked the right vibe by giving a perfect look to the lead politician character essayed by Richa in the film. According to some reports the director tried about 20 looks on her before finalizing the current one in the movie. And yes the hair stylist did not chop off Richa’s hair. Instead she opted for a wig. Read on to know the reason why.

Well, the movie was announced on February 2020. And week by week Richa Chadha  along with her team of stylists tried variant looks before achieving the current one. One may notice in the trailer that the look evolves as Tara (Richa in the movie) gains power and clout over the years.

Talking about it, Richa Chadha says, “There is a cute little anecdote behind why I had to wear a wig. The director ideally wanted me to chop my hair and I was ready for it. He wanted a powerful, fuss-free haircut that suited the character. But it was just around then that the date for our marriage got fixed. I realised I would have a mushroom cut by the time it was April 2020, if I had chopped off my hair for the part. Something I have hated since childhood is the mushroom cut. The director very kindly consented for me to use a wig, these are the various wigs we tried for Madam CM.”
