Adding, Bhumi said, "A fabulous actor, she was outstanding in comedies and Biwi No 1 was a huge inspiration for me while I was preparing myself for Pati, Patni Aur Woh. Karisma as a simple bahu to becoming the firecracker in the film had bowled me over and she was my most definitive reference point to nail my role in this film."
It was a dream come true for the Bala star who considers herself fortunate for playing a character in her upcoming film which is similar to the one played by Karisma in Biwi No 1.
"It's a dream come true for me to play a role that is so strikingly similar to hers. I thoroughly enjoyed playing the commercial film heroine for the first time in my career and I realised my childhood wish in the process," the thrilled actor concluded.
