Yami Gautam in Uri

Nowadays, actors leave no stone unturned to get the look of their character right. Be it putting on weight, shedding the kilos, or even going bald, actors are ready to go the extra mile to stay true to the character. One actress who has recently undergone a look change for her character is Yami Gautam. The actress will be seen in an all-new avatar for her upcoming film Uri: The Surgical Strike. Yami, who will be playing the role of an Intelligence officer in the film, revealed her look today. For her role, the actress wanted a neat appearance hence she decided to go with the short haircut.

Yami shared,

The look for Uri is something very different from what I have been seen in on screen before. It had to be a fuss-free yet a very neat look and thus the decision to chop the tresses was made consciously to suit the character. When you’re portraying the story of a real-life incident there’s an added responsibility to make things more authentic and as real as possible.

Uri is a military-drama based on the real-life incident that took place in 2016 when the Indian Army conducted a surgical strike in Uri, Kashmir. We will see Vicky Kaushal as the lead actor in the film. Uri also marks the debut of television actor Mohit Raina in Bollywood and also stars Paresh Rawal and Kirti Kulhari.

We also got an exclusive preview of the trailer and the film looks very promising. It will leave you with a sense of pride and evoke patriotism in you.
