Richa Chadha, who was last seen in the Omung Kumar-directorial Sarbjit, recently did an intimate photo shoot at her Mumbai residence, with photographer Shivaji Sen, known for his candid photography.

Richa’s photos are mostly in black-and-white and the camera captures the talented actress with an almost intrusive gaze.

Posing with the irresistible charm that can be rivaled only by a seductress from a 50s noir movie, Chadha looks almost poetic in the pictures, to put it mildly.

The entire photo essay is a refreshing break from generic, airbrushed photo shoots conducted by fashion glossies (As was evident in Priyanka Chopra’s recent shoot done by Maxim) as it gives a rare peek into the inner world and vulnerabilities of a Hindi film heroine.

Here, have a look at the stunning pictures.
