What followed next, even Bhairavi hadn’t anticipated. She began getting regular acting offers from independent filmmakers and directors. She will be seen playing a very glamourous girl in Mr. Bhatti On Chutti, starring Anupam Kher in lead role and featuring Amitabh Bachchan in a cameo appearance[7]. Bhairavi will, however, be shedding her glamourous image to play a simple schoolteacher in ‘Kachcha Limboo’[8] [9].
