Bhumi Pednekar wins the Face of Asia award at Busan International Film Festival

Bhumi Pednekar, who was last seen in Abhishek Chaubey’s dacoit drama Sonchiriya (2019), is currently busy promoting her forthcoming film Saand Ki Aankh, co-starring Taapsee Pannu. Right after the release of Saand Ki Aankh on 25th October, she will be seen in Bala alongside the much in demand actor Ayushmann Khurrana.

Other than Saand Ki Aankh and Bala, Bhumi Pednekar also several other exciting films on her platter. She plays central characters in such films as Pati Patni Aur Woh, Bhoot- The Haunted Ship and Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare.

Even while promoting Saand Ki Aankh, the actress squeezed out some time from her busy schedule to attend the Busan International Film Festival in South Korea. Her much-awaited film Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare, co-starring Konkona Sen Sharma, had its grand premiere at the 24th edition of Busan International Film Festival yesterday.

Bhumi won the Face of Asia award at the event which was conferred to her by a Korean film and fashion magazine. On winning the award, the actress said that she is humbled that my work has resonated with audiences and critics in Busan. "I am humbled that my work has resonated with audiences and critics in Busan. It’s my first international win, so I am proud. I have aspired to act in films that have something important to say, and have worked sincerely to deliver convincing performances. I hope to be part of cinema that will be remembered fondly in future."

We, at Eastern Eye, congratulate the actress on her win.
