There are many actors doing brand endorsements these days. When we see these advertisements – some we like, some we don’t and some we don’t even remember. I still remember when she caught my eye for the first time. I saw this ‘fair and lovely’ advertisement and I told my mom this girl is so beautiful. Yami Gautam, moving steadily up the ladder, is a Chandigarh based model turned actor. Yami aspired to be an IAS as a young girl and was pursuing her graduate degree in law honours but at the age of 20, Yami decided to pursue her acting career. 

Yami made her television debut with ‘Chaand ke paar chalo’ . She played her most notable role in ‘Yeh pyar na hoga kam’ which aired on colors. 

Her film career started with a Kannada film ‘ Ullasa Utsaha’ and then came her break in Bollywood movies , a small budget film ‘Vicky donor’ opposite Aayushmann Khurana. She played the role of a Bengali girl who falls in love with a punjabi boy but there is an adult twist in the tale.

The movie was a big success at the box office and received critical appreciation. Taran Adarsh wrote, “Yami gautam makes an imposing debut. She adds enormous value to the movie by her act , screen presence and striking looks.” 

She won the coveted filmfare award along with many other like Zee Cine, Star Screen etc in the year 2013, all under the best debut actor-female category.

In 2015 things turned ugly for Yami when Actor Pulkit Samrat’s estranged wife, Shweta Rohira, called her a ‘home breaker’ in a statement. At that time Pulkit and Yami were wrapping up their second film together, ‘Junooniyat.’ Although the two have never admitted to being in a relationship, the alleged love story has gone through many twists and turns ever since rumours of their affair surfaced.

Yami went on to do some more Hindi movies which did not do well on the box office but she did justice to her roles in each one of them. Her film ‘Total Siyappa’ opposite Ali Zafar saw the same fate as Sanam Re and Junooniyat.

Yami proves the quote ‘failure is success in progress’, absolutely right. All these failures were her work in progress for Kaabil which is a huge success at the box office. She’s looking supple, pretty and lovable in her role of a blind girl who goes through the unimaginable brutality. 

What makes me write about Yami is how she has never pulled off a publicity stunt to gain attention, she has not been lucky enough like Anushka and Deepika of the industry who started off with big banners but she has proved that she is no less a performer. Yami Gautam is getting up there on her own talent and hard work. She is an inspiration for all the ladies out there who feel they have it in them to make it big but do not have Yash Raj, Dharma or Bhansali up their sleeves. 

I wish sarkar 3  turns out to be a great success for Yami Gautam and may she have an amazing career ahead.

After Pulkit Samrat’s revelation about his wife, it is time to hear the other side of the story, as Shweta Rohira has come out in the open to reveal about his relation, and what went wrong in their once nothing-short-of-fairly-tale-romantic relationship.

But, things went haywire within one year of their relationship. Shweta in her recent interview termed her marriage with Pulkit a ‘mistake’. She even accused Pulkit’s rumored girlfriend, Yami Gautam, for being a ‘homebreaker’.

“I was living in an illusion. I trusted Pulkit,” Shweta said. “The film industry is a very small world. I get to know things about him even if I don’t want to. Yami was the smoke that led to whatever happened between Pulkit and me.”

“She is a home-breaker. Pulkit has always led a dual life for some reason,” she added. “He did not declare me as his wife for the longest time, and now he is saying that he is not dating Yami.”

“It’s time he becomes transparent,” Shweta stressed. “All said and done, my marriage with Pulkit was a mistake and I have learned the lesson the hard way.”

In the interview Shweta revealed that at her mother’s house Yami and Pulkit used to spend time together, and called the former a catalyst, which ended her marriage.

“Yami broke my marriage,” Shweta accused. “I have finally come out of my illusion; so many people cannot lie. Everything was fine between us until one person came in between.”

After a long relationship, Pulkit Samrat and Shweta Rohira tied knots, and everything was going well for the couple when they hit a roadblock. The couple called off their marriage. Pulkit’s closeness with Yami Gautam was sighted as one of the reasons for the breakup.

Despite so many speculations, Pulkit always maintained a dignified silence on the issue. But, a recent tabloid report, revealing the couple had a miscarriage four years ago, made Pulkit to come out and tell his side of the story. He made some shocking revelations on the entire issue.

“I can try to give it a graceful end, but not alone,” Pulkit said to Hindustan Times. “If you talk something else on the face and do something else behind my back and backstab me… This is not only false, but also unethical,” he added. “If I would not have spoken out right now, I would call myself spineless… it’s shameful and hurtful.”

Pulkit said he was shocked to hear about the miscarriage news in the media, while adding that it was done to malign his image. The Fukrey star said when he came to know that Shweta had leaked that news, his relationship “truly ended”. He also termed the entire episode “ethically unacceptable”.

The Sanam Re actor accused Shweta’s mother for interfering in their relationship, and influencing her decisions. Pulkit said that he respects a mother-daughter relation, but it doesn’t mean that one should cross the line, and starts to impede someone’s personal space.

“There’s a certain line that needs to be drawn, which every mother and daughter understands,” Pulkit pointed out. “You don’t want so much interference; you can’t do this in my house and claim that this guy only belongs to me and my mother.”

Meanwhile, Pulkit praised Yami for maintaining a “dignified silence” on the issue, despite being at the receiving end in the media reports. Yami was termed as the reason why Pulkit and Shweta parted way. Pulkit said that Yami was target for no reason whatsoever.

“I think she has got real strength, more than me, to maintain a dignified silence,” Pulkit insisted. “I think she has been on the receiving end of this entire campaign, which aims to malign me and her, because we were shooting for two back-to-back films.”
