Further into the conversation, Bhumi Pednekar retrospected about her films and navigated how each one of her films have been leagues apart from one another.

“I always try to balance it out like my release before this was a full glam yes feminist thing. I don’t think that’ll ever not be in my film, but that was an out-and-out glamorous popular film, right? It was like everywhere; it was that kind of film and that was my film that you know my character was the protagonist. Now I have a film that is ek dum doosre end of the spectrum a Bhakshak, and I am comfortable and very happy doing both. So, I think I get more films, I don’t think, I’ll be typecast.”
