Bhumi Pednekar
Bhumi Pednekar says she does not choose roles which present her in different avatars but focuses on the story of the films. The actor, who made an unconventional Bollywood debut with Dum Laga Ke Haisha and went to on feature in films like Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and Lust Stories, said she always has faith in a director's vision.
"I do not run behind any avatar, I run behind story. If the story is strong then I do it. A director and writer are the anchor and you put your faith on them," Bhumi told reporters at the promotional event of her upcoming film Sonchiriya here. She added, "When Abhishek said he is directing a film, I went weak on my eyes as he is on my bucket list, till then only Dum Laga Ke Aisha had released. I met him and he told me it is a dacoit drama. I did ask him what will I do in it? When I heard the story I felt I should not leave this film.
