Actor Poonam Pandey has claimed she has been approached her to feature in a biopic on the late Protima Bedi. “Yes, a big production house has approached me for a biopic on Protima Bedi. My talks are on, but I cannot reveal much,” Poonam said here on Thursday on being questioned about it.

A celebrated Odissi dancer, Protima Bedi — the former late mother of actress-writer Pooja Bedi — was bold and fearless in her choices in life. A posthumous autobiography “Timepass: The Memoirs Of Protima Bedi” is a frank memoir on the life of the celebrity, who had hit the headlines for celebrating her youth and sexuality by streaking on Juhu beach as a young model in the late 1960s.
