Why Bhumi Pednekar Suddenly Quit Netflix’s The Royals 2?

Bhumi Pednekar has been at the centre of discussions on social media for quite some time. The actress, who received widespread praise for her performance in Dum Laga Ke Haisha, initially earned appreciation for her acting skills and realistic screen presence.

For several years, Bhumi largely stayed away from major online criticism. However, things changed after the release of The Royals starring Ishaan Khatter. The actress faced heavy trolling online, with many viewers criticising her performance and presence in the series.

Later, another setback followed with Mere Husband Ki Biwi, co-starring Arjun Kapoor and Rakul Preet Singh. After the film failed commercially, online criticism directed at Bhumi reportedly increased further across social media platforms.

In one of her interviews, Bhumi revealed that she decided to take a break during this difficult phase. According to the actress, the constant negativity and criticism affected her deeply, leading her to step away for some time and focus on herself.

Bhumi later returned with Daldal, a project that received a more positive response from viewers. Many audiences appreciated her mature performance in the series, especially her portrayal of a police officer. Her character was considered one of the stronger aspects of the show.

However, the criticism did not completely stop. Some social media users commented on her appearance and claimed she looked different after allegedly undergoing cosmetic treatments. Despite these discussions, many viewers still felt Bhumi delivered a solid performance in Daldal.

Now, fresh reports suggest that Bhumi Pednekar has decided to step away from The Royals 2. Speaking in an interview, the actress reportedly said the surrounding noise and criticism became so overwhelming that she could no longer hear her own creative instincts clearly.

Bhumi also shared that she felt emotionally affected when people repeatedly said she no longer looked like herself. Despite the criticism, many still believe she remains a talented actress who has not always received the right projects to fully showcase her abilities.

At present, it remains unclear who might replace Bhumi Pednekar in The Royals 2 if the reports turn out to be true. The development has now created fresh curiosity among fans and followers of the series.
