Rajkummar
Rao-Bhumi
Pednekar's
upcoming
film
Badhaai
Do
revolves
around
the
theme
of
lavender
marriage.
Actress
Chum
Darang
essays
the
role
of
Bhumi's
girlfriend
in
this
film.
In
her
recent
interview
with
ETimes,
she
opened
up
on
how
she
bagged
the
role
and
revealed
that
she
had
no
inhibitions
about
playing
Bhumi's
love
interest.
Speaking
about
how
she
bagged
the
role,
Chum
revealed
that
she
came
across
a
casting
ad
on
Facebook
and
'randomly'
texted
the
team.
She
then
gave
auditions
and
bagged
the
role.
The
actress
revealed
that
her
character
in
the
film
is
that
of
a
fun
girl
and
that
she
wasn't
bothered
by
the
tag
of
playing
Bhumi's
love
interest
in
Badhaai
Do.
She
said
that
it
was
challenging
for
her
to
play
a
role
like
that
but
she
had
no
inhibitions.
"I
listened
to
my
director
(Harshavardhan
Kulkarni)
and
understood
what
the
team
wanted.
And
I
would
like
to
believe
that
I
completed
this
challenge
well," she
was
quoted
as
saying.
The
actress
revealed
that
in
the
past,
she
was
offered
roles
such
as
spa
employee
but
she
never
took
them
up
for
the
fear
of
getting
typecasted
since
she
hails
from
north-east.
Recalling
an
incident
that
she
faced
when
she
was
on
her
way
to
Badhaai
Do
auditions,
Chum
shared,
"When
I
was
called
for
my
audition
for
Badhaai
Do
and
this
was
in
March
2020,
on
my
way
to
the
venue,
two
boys
shouted
'corona'
at
me
and
I
started
crying.
For
my
audition,
I
had
to
do
a
scene
that
required
me
to
shout
and
I
could
actually
do
it
really
well
because
of
that
incident."

Badhaai
Do
is
scheduled

a
theatrical
release
