Bollywood actress Bhumi Pednekar has started 2022 on a huge high with her sensitive social drama, 'Badhaai Do'. She is thrilled that her performance, coupled with the love that 'Badhaai Do' is getting, has got people back to the theatres.

She says, “I’m happy that I have contributed towards bringing people back to the cinemas with our gem of a film, Badhaai Do! I hope the year continues to bring me luck and success. I also wish that the industry sees enormous successes because it was deeply affected by the pandemic.”

About the phenomenal start that she has got in 2022, Bhumi says, “The love and appreciation that I have been getting for Badhaai Do is just insane and I couldn’t have imagined a better start to 2022. I feel validated as an actor because my content choices are working consistently.”

Bhumi has a mighty slate of films, including Anubhav Sinha’s 'Bheed', Ajay Bahl’s 'The Ladykiller', Shashank Khaitan’s 'Govinda Aala Re'. Akshay Kumar and Aanand L. Rai’s 'Raksha Bandhan' and Sudhir Mishra’s 'Afwaah'.

She says, “It’s going to be a super special and the most diverse year in cinema that I have had in my career. As a creative person, I feel satiated that I will show people how different and disruptive I can be every time I come on screen. I hope I can entertain everyone thoroughly as that brings me a lot of joy.”
