Bhumi Pednekar praises Akshay Kumar for his support during her mother’s illness

Bollywood actress Bhumi Pednekar is currently promoting her new movie, "Bheed," with co-star Rajkummar Rao. The actress recently spoke out about how her professional friends and co-stars came to her aid during the COVID shutdown.

Bhumi was asked to name any actor or co-star from the business who supported her during the COVID lockdown in a recent interview with a news portal. In response, Bhumi stated that there isn't a particular name that she can give out. She claimed that it wouldn't be fair to single out one of her pals, ranging from Rajkummar to Kartik Aaryan.

But then, Bhumi continued by saying that there was one person she would like to name: Akshay Kumar. While her mother wasn't feeling well, she claimed he genuinely supported her. She is pretty appreciative of the actor for this.

For the unversed, Bhumi and Akshay have appeared in movies like Raksha Bandhan and Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and their on-screen chemistry won accolades from all quarters.

Bheed by Anubhav Sinha is a realistic and thoroughly researched depiction of the migratory exodus during the COVID outbreak. The film on the migratory stress experienced during the initial COVID outbreak will release on March 24.
