Bhumi’s Take on her Choice of Roles

In an interview, Bhumi Pednekar, who will be seen in Tushar Hiranandani's Saand Ki Aankh, said,

"What gets me invested in a movie is the challenge it poses to me as an actor. I would love to learn from every film and every role. I would not like to do similar roles and play safe. For me, acting is all about forgetting yourself and convincingly becoming someone else on the screen. I would always seek risky and challenging roles in films where I can contribute as an artiste and choose projects in which my part would have something important to do or say."

The actress has six films in the upcoming year in which she will be seen in different kinds of roles. When asked about her roles, the actress said, "It is exciting for me that every role will see me in a new avatar! That’s what motivates me to sign a film and be on the sets of such diverse movies and collaborate with different filmmakers. I’ve been fortunate and blessed to be getting these opportunities from talented directors who feel I will bring their vision to life. I recognise the responsibility and look forward to delivering work that I can be proud of."
