“‘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,” said Bhumi.
Bhumi further added, “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’.” The versatile actress is confident that ‘Raksha Bandhan’ will appeal to audiences of all age groups.
