Yami Gautam: I admire Shahid as an actor; looking forward to working with Shraddha

Yami Gautam will be seen sharing screen space with Shahid Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor in Batti Gul Meter Chalu. The actress will begin to shoot for the film in the end of March. In an interview with a leading Indian news agency, the actress expressed her excitement to work with Shahid and Shraddha. Yami said, "I saw him (Shahid) recently in Padmaavat and he was superb. I have loved watching him in films like Udta Punjab, Haider, Kaminey. He has always created a new character, something for which we can’t have a reference point. He has put endless amount of hard work as an actor on all these films. I adore him and admire him as an actor. He is a versatile actor."

She added, "I have never worked with Shraddha before. She is lovely person, so looking forward to working with her."


Talking about her character in the film, Yami said, " I am not telling the story. (All I can say) Both Shahid and I are playing lawyers and I can’t wait to start the shoot. I am happy the way my character has shaped up. She is a very strong girl."

"I don’t know how do you measure a cameo and full-fledged part. I look at it as what my character has added to the story, how important it is to the narrative. I know I am playing a strong character. I am excited to create something new which is a social drama on electricity issues faced in small towns," added the actress.

Batti Gul Meter Chalu is scheduled to release on August 31, 2018.
