This is how Yami Gautam's modelling days came in handy for her role in her upcoming flick, Bala!
Actress Yami Gautam is a household name owing to her popularity, being a face of several endorsements. Much before she became a successful actress on screen, Yami has dabbled in a bit of modelling during her hay days.
Grounded in her past and humble beginnings, Yami always stays connected to her past and the experiences that have shaped her. Success has been aplenty for Yami this year as she played an intelligence officer in one of the most successful films of all time URI: The Surgical Strike and with the release of her earlier film Kaabil in China recently.
Yami Gautam, before stepping into tinseltown as an actor has had a successful modelling caeer. She did modelling for a brief period of time before she made her debut in Hindi cinema with Vicky Donor in 2012.
Recently it was reported Yami is all set to play a model in her next film with Ayushmann Khurrana titled Bala. In the film Yami will be seen exploring the character of a model. Yami is thrilled to play such a character for the first time and her modelling days came handy to Yami to play her part of a a model in the film. The part she plays in the film is a model from Lucknow who is a popular face for the locals and the local brands of the city.
During her good old days as a model, Yami was the choice of various brands and fashion designers as the face of their product. When she learnt she is playing a model in the film she got all excited to portray her past real life experiences in reel life. It has been a great experience walking down the memory lane for Yami, in order to play a model in Bala.
Speaking about the same 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 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”.
