Actress Yami Gautam is on a roll! After bagging a pivotal role in Shree Narayan Singh’s social-drama film Batti Gul Meter Chalu, the actress has now signed producer Ronnie Screwvals’s upcoming film Uri.
The film, as the name suggests itself, is based on Indian Army’s surgical strikes across the LoC close on the heels of a terror attack near the Army camp in Uri which went on for 11 long days claiming the lives of 17 army jawans.
Yami will play the role of an intelligence officer in the movie while actor Vicky Kaushal essays the character of a commander-in-chief leading the operation against the terrorists. Expected to mount the shooting floor in next couple of months, Uri will be helmed by debutant director Aditya Dhar.
Sharing her excitement on being a part of the film, Yami said in a statement, “Aditya’s passion about the film is infectious, and the amount of extensive research he has done is amazing. I am really thrilled to be part of this film. This is the first time I am playing a role like this. I have been looking to do roles like this that represent the strength and courage of today’s girls”.
