Bhumi Pednekar on Sonchiriya: The terrain and experience of shooting in Chambal added to my character
FirstpostBhumi Pednekar may be just five films old, but she is being recognised as the face of courage and confidence in Bollywood. Her third, S_hubh Mangal Saavdhan_, addressed erectile dysfunction, and in Zoya Akhtar-directed short film Lust Stories, Bhumi went on to showcase the nuanced emotions of a maid in an affair with her young, single employer. “If you see in the last few years, there have been films that are high on content, and that make people uncomfortable and also makes them think get them more excited,” says Bhumi, who was obviously thrilled when director Abhishek Chaubey approached her for the dacoit drama Sonchiriya. The film is based in 1975 and whatever social comment he has made is so relevant — gender discrimination, caste discrimination, sheer consequence of poverty, lack of education and whatever societal norms people forced upon you and the consequence of that," said Bhumi, in an exclusive chat with Firstpost. Chaubey even told me what my character might eat and what her diet would be.” “I Sonchiriya is Chaubey’s first male-centric film but Bhumi was least worried about the screen time she will get.
