It's time to up my game: Bhumi Pednekar

The actor will next be seen in a film, directed by Abhishek Chaubey and starring Sushant Singh Rajput, that revolves around Chambal dacoits

Bhumi Pednekar, known for films like Dum Laga Ke Haisha and Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, says her next film Son Chiraiya will help her improve her game in Bollywood. The actor will feature in the film with Sushant Singh Rajput.

"The prep is going great and we are going to start very soon. It is a phenomenal script, so I am really excited to start the shoot," says Bhumi.

To be helmed by Udta Punjab director Abhishek Chaubey, Son Chiraiya revolves around Chambal dacoits and is set in the 1970s.

"There is a lot of nervousness, especially about working with Abhishek Chaubey. He is such an amazing director, and even my co-actors are such brilliant people from the industry. It is time to up my game and I think this nervousness is good. It's a good nervous energy," Bhumi adds.

The film will be shot in the Chambal ravines and will roll early next year.
