"In Thank You For Coming, I’m trying to be vocal about a girl’s right and the need for self pleasure" - Bhumi Pednekar

Bhumi Pednekar has been hailed by everyone for her performance in Thank You For Coming, a film that focuses on the taboo subject of female pleasure in our country. Bhumi plays a 32-year-old woman who realises self-pleasure is the key to satisfying one’s sexual urge instead of believing in the idea of waiting for the perfect man who could liberate her sexually.

Bhumi says, “I’m proud that Thank You For Coming has started an important conversation about female pleasure which somehow seems to be an extremely taboo topic in India. I’m happy that the film and my performance have got unanimously positive reviews and people across genders are giving it so much love.”

Bhumi adds, “As an actor, I have tried to lend my voice to important social topics for women like how a girl has the right to be happy in her body type in Dum Laga Ke Haisha, the right for a woman to demand proper toilets within her home in Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, the need for society to treat women and gender equally in projects like Lust Stories, Badhaai Do that speaks about the relevant rights of the LGBTQIA+ community and empowers them.”

She says, “Now in Thank You For Coming, I’m trying to be vocal about a girl’s right and the need for self-pleasure. All these are extremely relevant issues for girls in India and I’m glad I have been able to be a vehicle to channelise this subject to people across my country. Hopefully, we will have these conversations more openly and constructively.” ALSO READ: Kriti Sanon raves about Thank You For Coming: “Bhumi Pednekar, love the way you’re doing something different every time”
