Guwahati: Actress Bhumi Pednekar celebrates her 32nd birthday on July 18. Bhumi, who started her career as an assistant casting director, has established herself as an important person in the film industry.
She stepped into Bollywood with the 2015 film Dum Laga Ke Haisha, for which she received critical acclaim. Since then, there has been no looking back for her.
Here are some of Bhumi Pednekar’s Best Movies:
Lust Stories
Lust Stories is an anthology film and Bhumi Pednekar was involved in Zoya Akhtar’s segment about the maid who has a sexual relationship with the man whose house she cleans. The man, however, is later arranged to be married to a girl of his parents choosing and he is more than happy with the match but of course, the maid is sullen. It’s heartbreaking but also very enlightening as this is a reality that goes on in many places.
Toilet: Ek Prem Katha
This movie highlights the Toilet problem in India. Surprisingly enough, people still struggle with not having one in their homes, which is a basic necessity. Women particularly feel very shy and uncomfortable not having this basic necessity in the comfort of their own homes and this movie highlights their plight.
Dum Laga Ke Haisha
Weirdly so, this movie is about a man who wants to get married to a slim and trim girl but instead gets married to Bhumi Pednekar who is fat and not what he wanted at all. Bhumi won the Best Female Debut for this movie.
Durgamati
Bhumi Pednekar is literally doing every role in the book. She acts in Durgamati, which is a horror film, exciting.
Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare
This movie has Konkona Sen Sharma and Bhumi Pednekar as cousins and it tackles issues that usually aren’t ever tackled before.
Bala
This movie deals with a man who is struggling with premature baldness, it deals with his issues of confidence.
