The plot revolves around a successful reality TV producer who becomes desperate to get married after someone at work calls her a &#8216;childless cat lady&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking about<em> Akhri Somvaar<\/em>, Richa Chadha shared in a press release, &#8221; From my experiences of growing up in a middle-class Punjabi household, from my childhood, watching older cousins be set up for arranged marriages, emerged this deeply personal story that I think a lot of families will resonate with. When we graduate from college, we are full of dreams and ambitions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--MIDTABOOLA--><\/p>\n<p>Chadha added, &#8220;Somehow those dreams get dulled when we enter the job market and before you know it, your&#8217;re in your mid 30s, hoping to have both a career and a husband\/family, but society thinks it&#8217;s too late and you become jaded because the dreams are now not achievable. It is a slice-of-life story, about coming undone and coming together. I think there is currently a dearth of family entertainment. And I think as an actor, my comic timing has been greatly under-utilized. Speaking as a producer, it is a monetizable asset.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0Akhri Somvaar <\/em>is a fresh take on love, societal expectations, and the lengths one goes to for a dream wedding. Richa remains tight-lipped about the director who has been chosen to helm this project.<\/p>\n<p>                                        <!-- Featured Video --><br \/>\n                                                                                                                        <!-- Recommended Widget -->\n                                                                                                                    <\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndtv.com\/entertainment\/akhri-somvaar-richa-chadha-to-feature-in-and-write-the-story-of-her-upcoming-dramedy-7709992#publisher=newsstand\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Delhi: Valentine&#8217;s Day just got sweeter as Richa Chadha announced her upcoming dramedy, titled Akhri Somvaar.
