Chum Darang moved to Mumbai in 2018 and by 2020 she had signed up for a major Bollywood film. The model turned actor who made her debut recently in Harshavardhan Kulkarni's Badhaai Do talks to us about auditioning for the Rajkummar Rao-Bhumi Pednekar film and preparing her role as Pednekar's partner.
