It has been a phenomenal year for Bhumi Pednekar, the most exciting young actor of this generation. Bhumi Pednekar had four releases Son Chiriya, Saand Ki Aankh, Bala and Pati, Patni Aur Woh, out of which three have become hits! Son Chiriya was hugely acclaimed and some felt Bhumi deserved the best actor award for her brilliant portrayal as a woman living in 1970s Chambal. But what’s startling to note is that Bhumi, with her four films, has delivered close to 300 crores at the box office (India Gross Box Office: 255 and counting and Overseas Gross Box Office: 28 crore and counting) – a rare feat by any new actor! Two of her films Bala and Pati, Patni Aur Woh are still running in theatres globally!
“It has been a fantastic year for me creatively. All my films have presented me with new challenges, made me push myself and I have truly relished the opportunities. I’m thankful to audiences for loving my performances. They keep me motivated to push myself further,” says Bhumi, who has stamped her presence over Bollywood with her acting skills.
Bhumi adds, “As an artist, I have always chosen to experiment and when such experimentations do well, it gives me a lot of confidence, a lot of lessons. It tells me that I’m on the right path and gives me the validation that it’s ok for me to push boundaries with my film choices.”
