Bhumika has no airs about her newly attained stardom. She's simple, yet elegant. With her graceful movements, warm smile and a great blockbuster movie to her credit, Bhumika has carved a niche for herself in the hearts of many. As a bright faced college girl, she caught the attention of ad film-makers in Mumbai. Her campaign for Ponds powder became so popular, that inevitably the film offers followed.
She feels glad that she had started her career with ad films. It is there where she had learnt nuances of acting and expressions.

Bhumika has been inevitably flooded with offers from both in Tamil and Telugu industry. Yet, contrary to the general grain, she has not jumped at them. Instead, she has decided to take things one at a time. 'I don't like to clutter my plate,' she says matter- of- factly. Her conviction is so deep-seated that she has refused a film with Manirathnam.
Bhumika can afford to have such a laid back outlook because she does not see acting as a profession or a means to an end. For her, it is an interesting medium for communicating. She is into acting because she loves it. Critics saw in her performances, in Khushi and Tamil Badri and Rojakootam, a spark and spontaneity that even seasoned artistes find difficult to achieve. 'She is an absolute natural. Combine this with her beautiful looks, you have an actress who is bound to go places,' says a film critic.
