Celebrations seemed to have doubled for her as she also received a new honour, the Face of Asia. An excited Bhumi even took to her social media to announce the news as she shared a picture of her flaunting her glass trophy, dressed in a gorgeous Reem Acra grey and beige gown. She captioned the image as, “Thank you for this honour – Face Of Asia Busan International Film Festival and Marie Claire mag. This award has only motivated me to work harder.”
On accepting the award, Bhumi said, “I am humbled that my work has resonated with audiences and critics in Busan. It’s my first international win, so I am proud.

I hope to be part of cinema that will be remembered fondly in future.”
