Tamil cinema for a long time has been insisting that language is no barrier for debuting. Tamil cinema has been importing new faces and fulfilling the desire of Tamil audience. In that way, Richa Gangopadhyay is the recent new comer to Tamil cinema.

She made her first debut in a Telugu film titled Leader which had Raana in the lead role. This film was a super hit. Apart from this she has also acted in the Chandramukhi 2.

Even before the release of this film she was signed for the female lead role in Osthi which has Simbu in the lead role. When asked Richa Gangopadhyay that who is her best friend among Dhanush and Simbu, she says, “Both of them are my close friends. Dhanush taught me about lot of things in acting while Simbhu patiently taught me the steps in the dancing sequences. Apart from Dhanush and Simbu, there are lots of other actors in my friendship list.”

Richa Gangopadhyay is Happy with Osthi
