Bhumi made her film debut with a leading role in the 2015 romantic comedy Dum Laga Ke Haisha. She then featured Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and Shubh Mangal Savdhan.
The Forbes’ list is representative across 15 categories. The names have been selected names that meet three broad criterias — the extent of impact of their achievements, and their ability to disrupt the status quo; scalability of the business or line of work and; their potential to stay a long-term player.
Bhumi is currently shooting for Abhishek Chaubey’s Son Chiraiya, which also stars Sushant Singh Rajput.
