Bhumi Pednekar talked about brown girls making waves internationally and said, "Take for instance, Ambika Mod from Netflix's One Day. It's so refreshing to see an Indian origin girl play a lead role in such a successful series that has garnered love from its audience globally.

The fact that my exploration to find something meaningful for me in the West begins when I'm on a high post Bhakshak is also a plus for me. If I ever do an international project, I will choose one that gives me immense joy and creative satisfaction.I'm well aware that I need to represent my country proudly. I will not be hasty but I want to do great work in the West. It has to be a project that gives me a meaty role to shine," Bhumi said.
