Richa Jha: Hello, my name is Richa Jha, R-I-C-H-A J-H-A. Now, the word Richa sounds very simple where I come from. I come from India. There, the words CH together pronounced as Cha. Cha as in chair, and not chemistry, not Kah. So, my name is Richa. My surname is what is a little confusing to most people, because English doesn't have any equivalent of the words J and H together. In India it's pronounced as dcha, but there is no English equivalent of that particular phonetic sound. So, J and H together make the sound dcha, and my second name is called Jha. Richa Jha.
