Badhaai Do: Rajkummar Rao Calls Bhumi Pednekar ‘Immensely Talented’; Latter Refers To Him As A Revelation

Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar are two actors who have proven their versatility over and over again with their solid performances in the past few years. The first time they shared the screen with each other was when they graced Karan Johar’s chat show Koffee With Karan in season 6. They had a gala time and fans eagerly waited to see them shine together again. Well much to our delight, they are finally joining forces in Harshvardhan Kulkarni’s upcoming directorial Badhaai Do.

The actors have been busy shooting for their much awaited project in Dehradun since last month and often share sneak peeks of all the behind the scenes fun on social media. Well in a recent chat with BT, they opened up about working together. Rajkummar shared that working with Bhumi is great. He called her immensely talented and revealed that he has been following her work. He stated, “There is so much growth in her as an actor. I was looking forward to working with her and I was not finding a good script. Then Badhaai Do came our way and we both jumped at the chance.”

Bhumi, who is also ecstatic about the opportunity to work with the actor, shared, “Raj has been a revelation for me. I thought he would be someone who’s very serious and a bit of an introvert, but he’s not like that – at least not in this film. He is a blast to work with and a fantastic actor. Both of us were looking for the right film to collaborate on, and there couldn’t have been a better collaboration than Badhaai Do.”

While Rajkummar is playing the role of a tough cop in the film, Bhumi will be portraying the character of a PT teacher. Well, we are eagerly waiting to enter Raj and Bhumi aka Shardul and Sumi’s world with Badhaai Do.
