Richa Chadha to judge Marrakech Film Festival alongside Francis Ford Coppola
Mumbai, Nov 5 (IBNS): After delivering an incredible performance in 'Main Aur Charles', Richa will soon fly to Morocco to attend the Marrakech Film Festival 2015 as a jury member.
The actress will be a panelist along with the famous Hollywood film-maker and screenwriter Francis Ford Coppola, who is also the president of the festival.
Francis, the director of renowned Godfather trilogy has always fascinated Richa, making her feel honored to be summoned in the same jury as him.
Speaking about this, the actress said, "I felt humbled when I got to know that I have been selected to represent India in the jury for the festival. Mr Coppola is presiding over the jury this time, and I feel honoured, and almost giddy, at the thought of sharing the stage with him. I am sure there are other great names in the jury as well. I'm awaiting the list. I'm excited about this great cinematic and life experience."
In the past Hollywood actresses like Jessica Chastain, Marion Cotillard and Naomi Watts, were also associated with this film festival.
