Renowned for her exceptional acting prowess, Yami Gautam has left an indelible mark with performances in acclaimed films like ‘Uri: The Surgical Strike’ and ‘Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga’. Most recently, the versatile actress graced Amit Rai’s directorial, ‘OMG 2’, portraying the role of a defense lawyer. Following a screening of the film by her director-husband Aditya Dhar, both the film and Yami’s performance underwent appraisal. Here’s an excerpt from the revelation:
In a candid conversation with News18, Yami Gautam divulged the sentiments shared by her husband, director Aditya Dhar, regarding the cinematic marvel that is ‘OMG 2’. However, this appreciation extended beyond her role, encapsulating the debut directorial venture of Amit Rai.
Yami expressed, “He (Aditya Dhar) did watch the film. He watched it before the release and we watched it together and he was really happy. He said, ‘I’m so happy for you, Yami.’ It’s actually very embarrassing for me to quote him or what he said, it’s always nicer if we all could hear him (laughs). He said, ‘I’m really happy with all your choice of films and the way all of them have been received by the audience — be it OTT or theatrical. (He said) it is a really good film.”
The actress further unveiled her husband’s perspective as a fellow director, remarking, “I am so happy for the director. I know what it takes. Especially for a first-time filmmaker to make a film and finally release it in the theatres.” Despite the uncharted hurdles that often remain unspoken, Yami shared Aditya’s buoyant prediction for the film’s resonance with the audience.
Addressing the Certification and Impact of ‘OMG 2’:
Upon securing an A certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification, ‘OMG 2’ faced a momentary downturn in the visages of its cast. Yet, one undeniable fact has prevailed—despite the A certification and a head-to-head clash with the highly anticipated ‘Gadar 2’, ‘OMG 2’ has charted an impressive trajectory at the box office.
When questioned during the interview about the potential difference had the film secured a U/A certification, Yami reflected, “Definitely! Especially knowing that the target audience for this film, apart from family, was teenagers, a group of students, especially 12+ age group, who are still in their growing years, and at the brink of teenage and they question so many things at that age. If you watch the film, you know that the film targeted them. More than box office, more than numbers, it was the idea.”
‘OMG 2’ and Its Significance:
Sequeling the 2012 hit ‘OMG’, starring Akshay Kumar, Pankaj Tripathi, and Yami Gautam, ‘OMG 2’ carries forward the narrative with an engaging cast. Debutant director Amit Rai embarked on this cinematic journey, garnering positive response at the box office and reaffirming the film’s compelling impact.
