Richa Chadha trains in belly dancing for a special dance number in Shakeela biopic

Richa Chadha and Portraying Shakeela
Portraying Shakeela on screen is as much about bringing her tumultuous journey to light as about bringing her sensuality to the fore. The makers of the Shakeela biopic, we hear, have conceptualised a special promotional number that will put the spotlight on Shakeela's sensuous avatar. To do justice to the number, Richa Chadha, who plays the sultry siren in the Indrajit Lankesh-directed biopic, is learning belly dancing.
The actor, who is currently shooting the second schedule of the movie, has been training under the tutelage of Mumbai-based belly dance instructor Shaina Lebana over the past three weeks. Known for her perfectionist streak, Chadha wants to ace the art form before the song goes on floors towards the end of the schedule.
