Yami Gautam’s real life experience helps her in reel life

While working on her new film, Bala, Yami Gautam said that her early modelling experiences came handy while shooting for the film. In the film, Yami will be seen portraying the character of an uninsurable model who is a popular face for the locals of the city.

Speaking on this Yami said, “I play a popular model from a local city in Lucknow. Unlike a lot of characters shown on screen so far, my character is a local model who’s famous in a local town. There have been many occasions in my hay days which I associate with my character on a personal level even though the character is far different and her experiences are different from what I have experienced. The only similarity is that she’s a model and I have done that briefly, so there are basics I understand of the character. Of course, this character is very different and something I haven’t done before. But my personal experience as a model has come in handy in certain nuances”.

She made her debut in the film Vicky Donor(2012) along with actor Ayushmann Khurrana. Since then, the actor has experimented with a variety of roles. Her recent role in the super successful film Uri: The Surgical Strike alongside Vicky Kaushal was also appreciated.
