I want to play a freedom fighter in a biopic, says Bhumi Pednekar!

Actress Bhumi Pednekar, who has received rave reviews for her outstanding performance in "Toilet: Ek Prem Katha", has her kitty full with some amazing projects. But when asked who she would like to play onscreen if some filmmaker approaches her for a biopic, she takes a long pause and says, "I want to play a freedom fighter. Unfortunately, there are not a lot of women who have been really spoken about from our freedom struggle. But I think I would want to play Rani Laxmi Bai. But now I cannot even give that answer as Kangana (Ranaut) is doing it and she is amazing."

On being asked if she loves Kangana, she says, "I feel she is really brilliant. She has really made a career for herself and I see her as a one-man army. She is quite incredible. I really look up to women that are strong. I adore Priyanka Chopra. I have always adored her since she became Miss India. I adore people that are strong, that are fighters and that are survivors. And I think that Kangana is the one."


Talking about her forthcoming ventures, Bhumi said, "Shubh Mangal Savdhan is about to release right after "Toilet: Ek Prem Katha." There are a lot more projects in the pipeline. Next year is going to be very exciting. I'll start shooting for some projects in December."

"Toilet: Ek Prem Katha", starring Bhumi Pednekar opposite Akshay Kumar, is running in cinemas now.
