Bollywood actress Bhumi Pednekar has been embroiled in controversy after reacting to the derogatory language used against Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the month-long protests against NEET-UG 2026 at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi. The actress lashed out at those who insulted PM Modi. She also reminded the youth of their culture and advised them not to use offensive language. This statement prompted people to remind Bhumi Pednekar of the vulgarity in films. Now, amidst this controversy surrounding Bhumi Pednekar, one of her teachers has come forward, criticizing her and describing her behavior.
Bhumi Pednekar’s teacher raises questions
Shruti Desai questioned the “Toilet Ek Prem Katha” actress’s comments about her behavior during the student protests. She recalled that she herself used to be very rude to her teachers in class. She wrote, “Bhumi Pednekar, I remember being your teacher for a while in a Mumbai-based school. This is very unfortunate for me. I also remember how you used to behave very rudely and disrespectfully with your teachers. How did you develop this new approach to responsibility and respect?”
What did Bhumi Pednekar say?
A day earlier, Bhumi Pednekar reacted to the protest that began at Jantar Mantar through a video. She said that the students’ concerns had been heard and that the bill related to paper leaks had also been passed. But why didn’t the students raise the right demands? Why didn’t they demand technology like biometrics? Besides all this, when did the youth forget their culture? Do children just talk to their elders at home like this? We all have to move forward together.
