Yami Gautam's look in Aditya Dhar's Uri

Yami Gautam recalled the first day for the role of Pallavi and Jasmine in Uri: The Surgical Strike. The actor shared a throwback selfie through her official Instagram handle on September 8, 2020, Tuesday. It features her with a new haircut. In the caption accompanying her throwback photo, Yami Gautam remembered her character and talked about breaking the stereotypes linked with physical attributes.

She wrote, “Throwback to day 1 of 💇🏻‍♀️ for the role of ‘Pallavi/Jasmine’ in ‘URI-the surgical strike’! The hairstyle is not just a part of your vanity but is very instrumental in creating a distinct look for every character. But going this short with length, was a concern for people around, coz for some reason long hair are associated with the notion of ‘conventional beauty’ in the industry, society etc. I was so attached to the idea of being so ‘particular’ about my hair-length, that just an inch of extra hair-chop would make me go in a state of shock. That silly 🙈🙄."

"But I did not think twice when my director @adityadharfilms proposed the idea of me getting a short-Bob done for the character & to avoid the use of wigs, to make them look authentic. It got me very excited & just went ahead. I remember that moment of feeling so light & uninhibited not just as a person- with breaking the stereotypes associated with physical attributes in this business & other’ perspective of YOU but also genuinely giving-in as an actor & create something new. A number of of our senior artistes, India & abroad have done the same seamlessly & I wish to be on that path, whenever I get an opportunity 🙏🏻 P.S.. thank you Shefu & Shim.. for being the most amazing Karta- Dharta of my 💇🏻‍♀️💁🏻‍♀️💜” (sic).
