with Dum Laga Ke Haisha in 2015 and it was
only after two years that she starred in her
next film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha which
entered the 100 crore club. Subsequently,
she reunited on screen with Ayushmann
Khurrana in Shubh Mangal Saavdhan which
won the hearts of the audience and critics
alike.
Talking about her successful 2017 when it
comes to the professional front, Bhumi said
to a leading daily, "2017 marked the start of
my new life. Dum Laga Ke Haisha brought
me a lot of luck. But I feel I have made a
concrete place for myself in the industry,
thanks to things that happened this year.
Now, I know that I am here and have been
accepted. So, from here on, it's just a matter
of how long and far do I tread [on this
journey]. Also, this year, there have been so
many first time experiences including my
first 100 crore film and signing films with
two directors Zoya Akhtar and Abhishek
Chaubey whom I always wanted to work
with. So, it has been a phenomenal and an
overwhelming year."
Since 2016 saw no releases of Bhumi's, was
she happy with Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and
Shubh Mangal Saavdhan's success? "More
than being successful, I am happy about the
kind of impact Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and
Shubh Mangal Saavdhan had on people,
especially since they weren't run-of-the-mill
films. They were very special films and I was
lucky to be a part of them. Every success or
step of yours that works out well gives
immense happiness at the end. And I don't
think any of your past success or failure can
dampen that," Bhumi stated.
When quizzed about 2018, Bhumi revealed,
"I hope it turns out to be even better than
2017. I am reading some amazing material.
Starting with Chambal, whatever is in the
pipeline is great. I am doing the kind of
work that I love and with each passing day,
I also gain a new experience. All those
things that I dreamt about while growing
up about my life as an actor are happening
now. I hope it just keeps getting better. I
really want to continue being on a path of
physical and mental fitness."
