Toilet Ek Prem Katha: I’m very proud of my choices, says Bhumi Pednekar

Bhumi Pednekar says Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, which also stars Akshay Kumar, is a big film for her.

She ventured into Bollywood with Yash Raj Films’ Dum Laga Ke Haisha in 2015, featured in director Zoya Akhtar’s short film and will soon be seen in Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and Shubh Mangal Savdhan. Bhumi Pednekar says she is proud of the choices she has made in her career.

“Everything that I have got so far has been because of my work in Dum Laga Ke Haisha. So, it will be very special for me and these were people I wanted to work with even before I did Dum Laga Ke Haisha...I have seen Luck by Chance, Tanu Weds Manu and I was like ‘I hope I get to work with such amazing names’,” said Bhumi.

“I keep re-checking with reality that ‘Oh my God is this really happening and am I really working with Zoya and Aanand sir?’,” added the 27-year-old.

Bhumi says Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, which also stars Akshay Kumar, is a big film for her.

“Shubh Mangal Savdhan and everything I am reading now and that are coming out... these are the names and people I always wanted to be associated with. I have a lot of gratitude and at the same time, I’m very proud of my choices,” she added.
