'Biwi No 1' was a huge reference point for me: Bhumi Pednekar on how she took inspiration from Karisma Kapoor for 'Pati Patni Aur Woh'

Only 6 fillms old but a highly acclaimed actor, Bhumi Pednekar is doing the most commercial film of her career with Pati, Patni Aur Woh and it seems like she was inspired by Karisma Kapoor’s outstanding act in Biwi No 1. Speaking on the topic, we also found out that she has always been a huge fan of Karisma, who wowed the nation with her breath-taking beauty. 

Bhumi revealed, “I have been a huge fan of Karisma Kapoor since I was a child. I even bought a dress that was similar to the one she wore in Raja Hindustani. For me, she is the epitome of a commercial film heroine and I have seen and loved her films.“ The actress added, “A fabulous actor, she was outstanding in comedies and Biwi No 1 was a huge inspiration for me while I was preparing myself for Pati, Patni Aur Woh. Karisma as a simple bahu to becoming the firecracker in the film had bowled me over and she was my most definitive reference point to nail my role in this film.”
