Shreya Dhanwanthary is one of the most admired and respected divas in the Indian entertainment industry. After having made a name for herself as a model, she quickly had a smooth transition in the industry as an actress and ever since then, she never looked back.
While an actor generally tends to give multiple auditions before getting that ‘one big break’, Shreya seems to remember the audition for ‘Dhoom 3’ despite not making it. The reason is Bhumi Pednekar.
During her appearance on The Love, Laugh Life Show, Shreya was quoted by Hindustan Times saying,
“So, there was an audition that Yash Raj Films was doing. At the time, they were looking for a new girl for Dhoom 3. Bhumi Pednekar was working with Shanoo and she had come to Delhi to audition potential people who would be a good fit. I was one of the people and she loved my audition.”
She further added,
“Bhumi told me that I was ‘incredible’ and asked me to fly down to Mumbai to meet Shanoo. So I flew down to Mumbai for the day. I had braces at the time. It was just me and one other girl. Her name was Vaani Kapoor. We were auditioning for Shanoo, and she says, ‘Bhumi is right, you are fantastic, but I can’t put you on tape with braces. So once they come off and you actually decide to take this seriously, come see me in Mumbai.’ Actually, that was the reason why I decided to finally move to Mumbai.”
