Bollywood actors Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar will be collaborating for the second time together in Anubhav Sinha’s upcoming film Bheed. The duo are already a part of the upcoming social comedy Badhaai Do. Talking of his leading lady director, Sinha said, “That's the quality this character needs to have. I couldn't have asked for a better cast. These are performers who not only shine every time they are on screen; they elevate the written word to create magic on screen. I am blessed to have the team I am working with.”

Speaking of her experience with the Mulk director Pednekar said, “He shares my value system in believing that movies have the power to shift mindsets. As artists, the responsibility of telling such stories lies with us. Same goes for Bhushan Kumar who allows his writers, directors and actors to be gutsy, giving them the confidence like being the inspired producer he is. This is a crackling subject and I can't wait to get on to the journey of this film.” Bheed is a sociopolitical drama that will go on floors this November and be shot across Lucknow.
