After giving an impressive performance as a crime journalist in Bhakshak, Bhumi Pednekar is all set for her streaming show Daldal in which she dons the role of a cop. Talking about her character she said, “I love that in Daldal, I play a woman who has shattered the glass ceiling by being appointed as the DCP of Mumbai. She is a super achiever in a man’s world and I loved that layer of the show along with all the beautiful complexities that the role and the script has to offer. I think a character like this will resonate with the times that we live in because a woman is no longer shackled down and is ambitious and independent.”
She further added, “I’m really excited to be teaming up again with Vikram after our blockbuster Toilet-Ek Prem Katha (2017) and the hugely acclaimed Durgamati (2020)! I’m delighted to be working with a mind like Suresh Triveni whose work I admire a lot and of course Amrit Raj Gupta! I hope we can create another blockbuster together for Amazon Prime Video and make India proud on the global content landscape. My last hit streaming project Bhakshak made me reach out to so many people across the world and I wish Daldal does the same!”
Daldal is an edge of the seat thriller. Haunted by the guilt of her past and dealing with the demons of her present, Mumbai’s newly-appointed DCP Rita Ferreira, must embark on an investigation of a series of murders that puts her on a collision course with a cold-blooded serial killer, even as she has to save her life from falling apart.
