We're moving towards animalistic mentality, says Bhumi Pedneakar

Actress Bhumi Pednekar, who has featured in films laced with
social messages, says incidents like the rape of an eight-year-old in Jammu and
Kashmir's Kathua, shows people are moving towards animalistic and beast-like
mentality.
Bhumi spoke to the media at the 20th Beti FLO GR8 Awards 2018
here on Monday night.
She said: "The kind of circumstances that our
country is going through, I feel scared thinking about future generation. We are
moving towards animalistic and beast-like mentality, which is really
heartbreaking.
"I feel justice must be served to the girl and many other
victims like her who have experienced a shameful act like this, so that it
doesn't happen again. I am an optimistic person and I feel there will be
stricter laws and punishment to zero down incidents like these and so that
people will think twice before committing such crimes."
Currently, Bhumi
is busy with Abhishek Chaubey's "Son Chiriya", in which she will be seen with
Sushant Singh Rajput.
"We have released my first look for 'Son Chiriya'.
As of now, I can't reveal too many details about the film but I can say that
it's a special film in a short span of my career. We have worked really hard for
this film. This film has a really good director and cast.
"It's a
different kind of film and I am sure this film will have the same amount of
impact like my previous films," she said.
Bhumi was felicitated at the
Beti FLO GR8 Awards 2018.
"I feel really happy when people appreciate
your (my) work. Year 2017 has been really successful year for me. Two of my
films ('Toilet - Ek Prem Katha' and 'Shubh Mangal Saavdhan') released last year
and both of them received appreciation from the audience and they had a major
impact on the viewers."
