"I know it's a really sensitive picture," bhumi pednekar said recently at a media session about her character and the film Badhaai Do. It's about two characters who find themselves in a lavender wedding situation, but it's not a lavender marriage idea movie. "Playing a queer role was not a big concern for me because I have reached adulthood with some gay friends and with many people belonging to this group,"

Bhumi Pednekar remarked when asked if she had any hesitations about attempting to play a lesbian character on television for the first time. "When I encounter same-sex couples in real life, I don't see them through a different lens," Bhumi continued. Many anecdotes about characters from the lgbt population have come my way over the years. But it was the tenderness with which the next picture Badhaai do was written that really impressed out."
