Bollywood actress Bhumi Pednekar has now wrapped up the Mumbai schedule of her upcoming film ‘Raksha Bandhan’. The film marks her second collaboration with Akshay Kumar after ‘Toilet :

Ek Prem Katha

’. Interestingly, the actress is working with Aanand L. Rai who has earlier produced her hit film ‘

Shubh Mangal Saavdhan

’ with Ayushmann Khurrana, who is now directing her in ‘Raksha Bandhan’.

Talking about the film, Bhumi said “’Raksha Bandhan’ is my reunion with the most special people in my life! Anand Rai sir is a guru for me, who trusted my abilities as an actor when I had just started out and I will forever be grateful to him for the opportunity he gave me to shine through in Shubh Mangal Saavdhan. So, I’m delighted that I have got an opportunity to work with him again”.

“Akshay Kumar sir gave me a film that became my first blockbuster. He believed in me in Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and our pairing won hearts. He has instilled a sense of belief in me that has propelled me to excel in this industry. So, naturally, I was thrilled when I got to know that I will be acting with him again in ‘Raksha Bandhan’,” she added.

While the actress is confident that ‘Raksha Bandhan’ will appeal to audiences of all age groups, she concluded, “It’s a script that will touch everyone’s hearts and I’m hoping that my pairing with Akshay sir will be loved again!”
