The actress, who shot for her debut film Dum Lagake Haisha in Rishikesh, feels nostalgic and blessed to be shooting in the city once again. The actress feels that the city has only brought her good luck. In a press statement earlier, Bhumi shared her thoughts of shooting in the city for the third time.

“Rishikesh holds a very special place in my heart and it has been incredibly lucky for me! I shot in this most beautiful place for my debut film Dum Laga Ke Haisha, then for Shubh Mangal Saavdhan, and both these films went on to become huge hits. Now, I will be shooting in Rishikesh again for Badhaai Do and I'm certain that it will become my lucky charm for the third time.”

“I'm really excited to soak in this city because there are so many memories attached to it. I have always received so much love from the people of Rishikesh every time I have visited and I'm looking forward to their warm hospitality again. It's been a while. I can't wait to go back and relive all the nostalgia, all the love, all the incredible local food of Rishikesh,” she added.

Badhaai Do is the second installment in the Badhaai Ho franchise. While the first film starred Ayushmann Khurrana and Sanya Malhotra, the new film Bhumi will be seen sharing screen space with Rajkummar Rao.
