As per BollywoodLife, Richa told a portal, "I was facing mild symptoms and got myself tested a day before. I tested positive. I just came from Allahabad, where my husband is staying. From a few days, I couldn’t taste or smell anything. Be it perfume or food. I was asking my mom about why the food is tasteless. Also, I had a cough and cold. So I thought that it’s better to get myself checked. The BMC officials have been very helpful and supportive."

Apart from Khichdi, Richa has also been a part of several shows namely Baa Bahoo Aur Baby, Instant Khichdi and Mrs. Tendulkar. 

Last year, there were reports making the rounds that she is likely to be a part of the reality show, Bigg Boss.
