Actor Bhumi Pednekar is an environmentally conscious citizen who has taken up climate conservation as a cause to raise awareness among fellow Indians. Bhumi has launched an initiative called Climate Warrior through which she is mobilising people to contribute towards the environment. The actor is batting for sustainability and says it’s vital for climate protection.
“I believe in repeating clothes. I don’t think that people might see me wearing the same clothes because as an actor you are told to always wear different and new outfits but, honestly, I don’t care. There are so many business which I have come across where people are renting clothes. I love the idea, says Bhumi.
She adds, “Even personally, between me and my sister, our wardrobe is pretty much one. We share clothes. We keep repeating clothes and we have no problem with that. In the last two years, I have consciously started seeing how climate conscious the brand is before I wear them. Today, we have enough options of such brands.”
Bhumi feels the whole world is shifting towards sustainability in a big way. She says, “And, rightly so. If you have noticed, there is large shift in the way brands are now dealing with sustainability. Most of the high fashion, luxury brands are slowly and steady turning towards sustainability. I really hope that the process happens a lot faster. Unfortunately, with recycled and up-cycled fashion, the price difference is a lot and it’s not affordable to everybody.”
