Tackling powerful parts in Bala and Saand Ki Aankh, Bhumi Pednekar on what makes her tick

Bhumi Pednekar will have a busy time at the box-office with as many as five releases lined up for the next four months. Having displayed a sharp eye for scripts early on in her career, the actor considers herself "privileged" to have got the opportunity to play such diverse characters — if Bala has her playing a dusky woman dealing with her insecurities, Saand Ki Aankh presents the challenge of playing a 60-year-old on screen.
The shoot of Bala behind her, Pednekar says the script of the social drama ticked all the boxes. "While choosing a film, I try and understand if the audience will connect with my part. My characters need to be layered, complex and have a strong sense of being. Bala is right up my sleeve. It's so funny and moving; it's a story where you will connect to the characters instantly," she enthuses.
