I love playing women who are equal to men. - Bhumi Pednekar 

Bhumi Pednekar is one of the most unique actresses of Bollywood. Unlike a majority of her contemporaries who play typical Bollywood female characters, Bhumi prefers playing characters who are powerful on their own and her role in the film 'Govinda Naam Mera' is no exception. She sees this as her small contribution to Indian cinema as well as to Indian society.

According to a recent report in The Indian Express, the actress stated, "I love playing women who challenge the status quo in society and change the lens on gender. I love playing women who are equal to men. I would like this to be my small contribution to Indian cinema and my calling card. I want that, through my body of work, I loudly speak about the need for equality.”

Talking specifically about her character Gauri Waghmare from 'Govinda Naam Mera', Bhumi said, "I love Gauri Waghmare who is an unstoppable force of nature and can stand up to a man and also be vocal about what she wants in life. She is an amazing character to play and I thank Shashank for giving me the freedom to run riot with it. I had a blast playing her. I think it’s evident in the trailer of the film and I’m sure it will come out more strongly when people watch the film on December 16."
