In a recent conversation with IANS, Bhumi expressed her eagerness to explore genres outside her comfort zone, specifically action films and historical dramas. “I think what I would really want to do is maybe an action film, maybe do a film around the freedom struggle,” she revealed, emphasizing her determination to bring this vision to life. She further shared her intention to manifest this ambition, saying, “I’m constantly putting this out there in the universe.”
Beyond her film projects, Bhumi Pednekar recently showcased her modeling prowess at Lakme Fashion Week, serving as a muse for designer Richa Khemka. During the event, she opened up about the influence of cinema on societal beauty standards, noting that films play a significant role in shaping perceptions of beauty and fashion.
“Films play a large part in setting any kind of benchmark, and it’s just not limited to fashion and beauty,” she remarked. “If used rightly, cinema can truly have a very positive impact.”
Fashion, for Bhumi, represents more than just aesthetics; it is a powerful form of self-expression. “I find fashion liberating and empowering,” she stated, reflecting on her personal journey in the industry. “I’ve truly found a space that I really, really enjoy.”
