Bhumi Pednekar and Thank You For Coming co-stars visit the New Parliament Building

Bhumi Pednekar and her co-stars from the upcoming film Thank You For Coming, visited the New Parliament Building in New Delhi on September 20. Pednekar, Shehnaaz Gill, Dolly Singh and Shibani Bedi, were accompanied by Union Minister of Information and Broadcasting Anurag Thakur as they took a tour of the building and appreciated the artwork and architecture which represents India's history and ancient heritage.

The visit is also significant as it coincided with the day the Women's Reservation Bill was introduced in the Lok Sabha. The bill seeks to reserve 33% of seats in the Lok Sabha and state legislative assemblies for women.

Pednekar commented on the Bill while interacting with media persons at the venue and said, “I am very proud of being a modern Indian woman and being here at this historic moment. The first bill that was discussed in the new Parliament was the Women’s Reservation Bill, and I am very hopeful for the change that women will bring while being in power and being a part of policy decision-making.”

Thank You For Coming is directed by Karan Boolani and releases in theatres on October 6. The film also stars Kusha Kapila, Karan Kundra, Gautmik, Pradhuman Singh and Anil Kapoor in a special appearance.
