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.

Michael Madsen’s top 10 unforgettable movie roles

10 iconic Michael Madsen roles that made him Hollywood’s ultimate tough guy

Quick highlights:

  • Michael Madsen was known for blending menace with vulnerability across a 200-film career.
  • His breakout role as Mr Blonde in Reservoir Dogs remains one of the most iconic villains in cinema.
  • Roles in Kill Bill and Donnie Brasco cemented his status as a cult favourite and Tarantino regular.
  • He also surprised audiences with emotional performances in Free Willy and Thelma & Louise.

Some actors chase stardom. Michael Madsen wasn’t one of them. He didn’t charm you with a smile; he unnerved you with a stare. His voice wasn’t smooth; it was gravel scraped over concrete. He played men who lived in the shadows, spoke in grunts or chillingly calm threats, and carried violence like a familiar tool. But damn, when he was on screen, you couldn’t look away.

Madsen didn’t act tough; he was tough, and not in the movie-star sense. In a real, broken, beautiful way. These 10 roles aren’t just career highlights. They’re pieces of a man who gave us something rare: the truth, hidden in hard men with soft edges.
