Actor Bhumi Pednekar spoke about everything from her film choices, being bullied, transformation to entrepreneurship at the India Today Mumbai Conclave on Thursday. Interestingly, during the conversation, the actor credited her first film, 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha, being a transformational movie.

During her session titled ‘Power of Presence in Changing Industry’, Bhumi said, "It gave me an opportunity. It opened doors into what I wanted the rest of my life to be, but it also gave me a deep sense of self. With every film that I do, I'm constantly seeking that sense of self," she expressed.

She also shared that the person that she is today is "a total of all my film experiences because they've humbled me deeply, and they have given me courage."

In the same conversation, she also made a quirky confession about her love for lipsticks. The remark came as she opened up about making reels with her sister, Samiksha and social media influencer Orry. 

"I am not coping; my team is coping for me. Honestly, i don't understand it. The only thing that keeps me going is being authentic. That has been my mantra since i started my film career as well. If you see me in a reel with Orry, that's because i am his friend. I have been his friend for many years. If I am making a beauty video with my sister, that's because i love makeup. At times, i feel like eating lipstick," she stated.  

The actor was recently seen in the Netflix series, 'The Royals.'
