Bhumi Pednekar Instagram – #ELLEDigitalCoverStar: The marquee lights flicker on, and @bhumipednekar’s celebrity persona switches into place with an inaudible click. Her caramel-hued tresses have been finger-combed to affect a just-hopped-out-of-the-shower charm. Her eyelids have been fleetingly kissed by the dainty hues of blush pink. To the world, she appears at ease as she arches her petite frame this way and that to catch the light. But as she crosses her arms, the curtain slips for a minute to reveal an aching halo of vulnerability lining the depths of her pupils. These are eyes that have stared vacantly at the ceiling on sleepless nights to comprehend the towering monolith of climate change and the seemingly minuscule role she might play in paving the path towards a more sustainable future. “I was very young when I first learned about climate change, and it used to cause me a lot of anxiety,” she recalls. Head to the 🔗 in the bio to read about her journey towards sustainability. _________________________ On @bhumipednekar: Scarlet inferno gown by @vaishalisstudio.
