Ahead of the release of the film, Bhumi spoke to ANI and shared her experience stepping into the shoes of a journalist.

"Journalism is a difficult career...it needs a lot of courage to ask the right questions, especially to the people who are in power.

I feel honoured," Bhumi.

I hope the film sparks conversations that lead to meaningful change. The film sheds light on the crimes against the children," she added.

'Bhakshak' is directed by Pulkit. Along with Bhumi, Sanjay Mishra, Aditya Srivastava and Sai Tamhankar also play pivotal roles in the film. It will be released on Netflix on February 9. (ANI)
