A still from Dum Laga Ke Haisha.
Mumbai: Actress Bhumi Pednekar was in tears when her debut film Dum Laga Ke Haisha was chosen as the Best Hindi Film at the 63rd National Film Awards. Bhumi said that she will be ready for its sequel, but she has an interesting condition.

When Bhumi was asked if she would do the Dum Laga Ke Haisha sequel, she said: "Only when Ayushmann Khurrana will be gaining weight instead of me."

On a serious note, the actress, who is now back to being fit and fabulous, said that she never expected a National Award for the Sharat Katariya film.

"Sharat sir and I got emotional when we heard the news. I was in tears as I never expected this honour. Being my first film, Dum Laga Ke Haisha will always be special for me. However, I never expected this kind of appreciation, and I didn't even imagine getting awards. Now, receiving a National Award is like an icing on the cake," Bhumi said.(Also Read: Dum Laga Ke Haisha Turns One, Bhumi, Ayushmann Dubsmash Dard Karaara)

Recollecting an embarrassing incident from the set of the film, the 26-year-old actress said: "I felt really embarrassed when I had to climb on Ayushmann's back for a scene. I was 90 kgs and I thought how Auyshmann would do it. I felt bad for him. But he was such a gentleman every time that after the shot, he used to ask me if I was okay."

After portraying the role of an overweight married woman, Bhumi's transformation from fat to fit has been quite amazing.

"I worked hard on my fitness. Though I miss the foodie in me, I follow the strict diet and workout. Now it happens to be my normal lifestyle," said Bhumi.

Meanwhile, Bhumi and Ayushmann are busy filming Manmarziyan.
