Yami
Gautam
made
an
impressive
debut
in
Bollywood
opposite
Ayushmann
Khurrana
in
Shoojit
Sircar's
2012
film
Vicky
Donor.
Within
a
short
span,
the
actress
has
wooed
the
audience
with
impressive
acts
in
films
like
Kaabil,
Uri:
The
Surgical
Strike
and
Bala.
However,
the
journey
hasn't
been
easy
for
this
beauty
from
Himachal
Pradesh.
In
a
recent
interaction
with
Pinkvilla,
Yami
who
recently
completed
11
years
in
showbiz,
opened
up
about
her
journey,
being
asked
to
'dress
her
age'
and
'aim
at
looking
younger'
and
much
more.
Speaking
about
how
her
eleven-year
journey
hasn't
been
an
easy
one,
the
Badlapur
actress
told
the
news
portal,
"Of
course
it
was
very
tough.
There
are
so
many
things
which
you
have
to
handle.
(Sometimes)
anyone
saying
anything
on
your
face,
you
don't
know
what
it
means
and
don't
know
what
to
do.
There
could
be
people
having
opinions
on
the
way
you
dress
for
a
meeting,
on
the
way
you
do
your
makeup,
hair
or
how
you
carry
yourself."
Yami
narrated
an
incident
from
her
early
days
in
the
industry
when
a
top
casting
director
told
her
to
'dress
her
age'
when
she
had
gone
to
audition
for
a
role.
The
actress
recalled,
"I
had
an
audition
for
a
really
big
production
house,
and
the
person
is
one
of
the
most
popular
casting
directors.
That
person
told
me
my
screen
test
was
really
good.
By
then
I
had
shot
for
Vicky
Donor,
but
it
had
not
been
released.
So
I
was
very
happy,
because
they
wanted
to
launch
a
new
face.
(They
said)
'you
have
been
shortlisted
but
the
problem
is,
you
should
dress
your
age,
why
do
you
dress
like
that'.
I
don't
know
what
it
means,
what's
wrong
with
just
jeans
and
a
top," Yami
said,
adding
that
she
wanted
to
tell
that
person
many
things.
"If
I
look
the
part,
it's
your
job
and
the
hair
and
makeup
team's
job
to
make
me
look
the
way
the
character
demands,
and
the
rest
of
course
is
my
job
as
an
actor.
So
why
can't
I
walk
in
a
meeting
in
a
kurti
and
jeans
if
I
want
to,
versus
what
you
expect
me
to.
How
does
that
matter?"
Yami
told
Pinkvilla/
She
further
added,
"Today
it's
comfortable
for
me
to
talk
but
at
that
time
I
came
out
thinking
that
I
have
lost
the
part
for
sure.
But
what
do
I
do
about
it
if
I
don't
connect
with
something?
What
kind
of
an
expectation
is
this?"
Workwise,
Yami
is
currently
busy
shooting
for
Dasvi
which
also
stars
Abhishek
Bachchan
and
Nimrat
Kaur.
Apart
from
this
film,
the
actress
has
some
more
exciting
projects
like
Bhoot
Police,
Ronnie
Screwvala's
A
Thursday
and
Aniruddha
Roy
Chaudhary's
next
film
which
is
based
on
crime
journalism.
