Immersed in the vibrant culture of Bollywood, Bhumicka's path seemed clear. However, she yearned to carve out her own identity within the entertainment world. With an innate understanding of glitz and glamour, she ventured beyond Mumbai, setting her sights on the thriving nightlife and hospitality scene in Goa.
Bhumicka's transition was nothing short of spectacular. Her unique blend of Bollywood flair and entrepreneurial spirit quickly earned her the title of the "Bollywood Queen of Goa." Through her connections and keen business acumen, she transformed Goa's nightlife, creating a brand synonymous with luxury, entertainment, and unforgettable experiences.
This is the remarkable journey of Bhumicka, from the bustling streets of Mumbai to the sun-kissed beaches of Goa, where she reigns supreme in the world of nightlife and hospitality. According to Bhumicka, her Bollywood debut came with the film "Aap Ki Khatir," produced by Venus and featuring a starstudded cast including Akshay Khanna, Dino Morea, Priyanka Chopra, and Sunil Shetty. The film was directed by one of Bollywood's leading directors, Dharmesh Darshan. "He offered me a role in the movie, and there was a 45-day schedule in London where I had the chance to do an item number and a couple of scenes," she shared.
Despite receiving many offers after her debut, Bhumicka found them uninspiring and declined. "The offers I got did not resonate with me, and the ones I wanted to do, I didn't get an opportunity. I think maybe Bollywood was not my destiny," she reflected.
