Netflix’s upcoming release ‘Bhakshak’ has been called by many as a brave stride. A hard hitting narrative, the film, directed by Pulkit and produced by Red Chillies Entertainment, stars Bhumi Pednekar in the lead as Vaishali Singh, alongwith Sanjay Mishra, Aditya Srivastava and Sai Tamhankar. The film will release on 9th February, exclusively on Netflix India.
At the screening of the film, we saw the industry come out to support the film, from Pratik Gandhi, Anand L Rai, Rhea Chakraborty, along with the cast of the film walked the red carpet. Among the ones who came for the event was also Samiksha Pednekar, Bhumi Pednekar’s younger sister who after watching the film was overwhelmed and posted what we can call one of the first few reviews of the film where she also spoke about the reaction of those in the audience.
Written against a sweet picture of Bhumi’s mother hugging her, Samiksha praised Bhumi and the film, “Proud of you Bhumi, you’ve outdone yourself and we are so proud of you. Bhakshak is one of the most important films of our time! A must watch! Out on Netflix on Feb 9!” She continued to say how there was complete silence at the screening of the film and after the credits rolled, everyone was teary-eyed. She said that ‘Bhakshak’ was one of the best she had watched in a while.
There were others who joined Samiksha in praising the film like- Actor Rithvikk Dhanjani and Producer Tanuj Garg.
