She may have had only four dialogues in Zoya Akhtar's short, but Bhumi Pednekar has proved that an artiste of her calibre doesn't need to rely on powerful lines to make an impact. The actor has been garnering rave reviews for her nuanced portrayal of a house help who has an affair with the flat owner, in Lust Stories. "Initially, I was nervous as I had to communicate only through my expressions. But the challenge of it attracted me to the film. Also, Zoya was clear about what she wanted," says Pednekar.
