- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,March 10 2015]
YRF's latest find Bhumi Pednekar is basking in the appreciation she has been receiving for her recent release 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha'. She created a huge impact with her stellar performance in the film and won hearts with her endearing role.
We were told that Bhumi went theatre hopping over the weekend as she wanted to see the audience reactions firsthand. She visited a few theaters to watch her film with the audiences so that she could gauge how people are finding 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha'. While she was in one of the theaters, a slightly overweight girl came up to her to congratulate and praise her for her performance in the film. She shared with Bhumi on how she has taken her weight in her stride and not made it a hurdle for herself.
The girl spoke about how Bhumi has beautifully depicted how she was not apologetic about her weight and displayed confidence. Bhumi had a five minute exchange with the girl and was really touched by what she had to say.
In 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha', Bhumi plays an overweight girl in the film who is confident about herself, comfortable in her own skin and completely unapologetic in her approach. Thus, she has become a role model for girls and women across the country.
Directed by Sharat Katariya, 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha' stars Ayushmann Khurrana in lead along with Bhumi.
