Richa grabbed eyeballs earlier this year when she revealed that she quit acting because of casting couch. She said that post her marriage, she auditioned for some shows but few people asked her to compromise. Her revelation had set many tongues wagging. She also said that she was body-shamed several times and even makers asked her to shed weight or do roles of a fat girl. "I have constantly been told, “Oh you are too chubby!” This is how I am, this is my body structure. Often I have been offered roles of a ‘fat girl’ as per the script’s demand. I don’t want that tag. I have been told to lose weight if I want to act. I don’t want to lose weight only to be a part of the industry,’’ the actress told TOI. On the personal front, Richa got married to Vivek Gupta in 2017. Vivek is a businessman.
