Last Updated: Bhumi Pednekar turned heads in a saffron and pink lehenga by Mahima Mahajan. She shared the pictures on her social media. Bhumi Pednekar is currently basking in the success of her romantic drama, The Royals. The actor played the role of Sophia Kanmani Shekhar, an entrepreneur, in this Netflix series. She shared the screen with Ishaan Khatter. Amidst the success, Bhumi has not stopped from serving looks on her social media. For her recent look, she left her fans stunned as she opted for a saffron lehenga. Taking to her Instagram, Bhumi Pednekar shared a series of pictures of herself in a stunning saffron floral lehenga. The floral embroidery made the lehenga a perfect pick for all summer and spring festivities. Sharing the pictures, she wrote, 'Just some bling for the feed." Take a look at the post shared by Bhumi here. Bhumi turned heads in a custom Mahima Mahajan creation, called the Wahida lehenga. Made from organza, the lehenga set featured a dreamy palette of kesar (saffron) and soft pink. The set came with a voluminous skirt that was adorned with bold floral embroidery, swirling leaf motifs, and intricate threadwork. The graceful silhouette struck the perfect balance between drama and sophistication. She paired the lehenga skirt with a matching blouse. The blouse was hand-embroidered with shimmering sequins, mirror accents, and delicate thread detailing. The cropped and structured design highlighted Bhumi's sculpted frame. Styled by Nidhi Jeswani, Bhumi paired with the lehenga with a matching flowing dupatta. For the accessories, Bhumi opted for statement earrings from Golden Window and a striking cuff by Ishhaara. These carefully picked accessories brought out the beauty of the lehenga rather than overpowering it. For the glam, she opted for a soft glam look. She added a healthy dose of blush for that gorgeous flushed look. She added a complementary peach shade on her lips. She sealed her look with a tiny round bindi for a traditional touch, while her sleek, middle-parted bun offered a refined contrast, ensuring all eyes stayed on the lehenga and those exquisite jewels. On the work front, Bhumi was also seen in Mere Husband Ki Biwi, which was released earlier this year. She shared the screen with Arjun Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh. She will be next seen in Daldal.

Bhumi Pednekar shares how she ‘gets high' on life while shooting on set
Actress Bhumi Pednekar recently offered a glimpse into what keeps her spirits soaring on set. In a candid moment, she shared how she often 'gets high' on life while working. Taking to Instagram, Bhumi shared photos of herself from the sets, writing, 'Bun maska and chai gets me high.' In the images, the Bhakshak actress is seen enjoying tea with bun maska. In the video, Pednekar could be heard saying, 'Bread, butter, and chai ultimate.' Bhumi shared a series of photos from the sets, capturing the cozy mood of a rainy-day shoot. Along with her post, she used hashtags like #monsoons, #onset, #filming, #BhumiPednekar, and #chai — perfectly summing up her love for simple pleasures during a busy filming schedule. Professionally, the 'Badhaai Do' actress was most recently seen in the series 'The Royals,' which also starred Ishaan Khatter, Zeenat Aman, Sakshi Tanwar, Nora Fatehi, Vihaan Samat, Dino Morea, and Milind Soman. Directed by Priyanka Ghose and Nupur Asthana, the romantic comedy centered on a once-wealthy royal family in present-day India, facing financial hardships. Their fate begins to change when the family's heir partners with a hospitality entrepreneur to transform their ancestral palace into a high-end resort. In the show, Bhumi Pednekar played Sophia Kanmani Shekhar, the CEO of Work Potato and the love interest of Fizzy. The series premiered on Netflix on May 9, 2025, and was renewed for a second season on May 28. Tanya Bami, Series Head, Netflix India, added, 'Rom-coms have a timeless charm; they make us laugh, believe in love, and embrace the beautiful chaos that comes with it. With The Royals, we've created a modern love story that has an equally modern-day conflict. While Bridgerton and Emily in Paris showed the world how compelling romantic sagas can be, The Royals brings that sizzle and swoon to a world that's unapologetically Indian. Creators Rangita Pritish Nandy and Ishita Pritish Nandy said, 'With The Royals, we've mounted a romance that whips together the old-world charm of palaces and Indian royalty with glass-walled boardrooms and modern reality—where love is anything but easy.' The creators shared that the series is about two people from completely different worlds, each fighting their own battles, constantly at odds, yet irresistibly drawn to each other in ways they never expected. Bhumi is next gearing up for the release of the psychological thriller 'Daldal.' In an Instagram post, the actress had opened up about her character in the upcoming web series. Reflecting on what she described as a year-long journey, she shared her excitement and nervousness about portraying a role she considers one of the most complex and layered of her career.
