Yami Gautam to star in a film titled A Thursday

Yami Gautam is on a roll. Last year, she starred in two blockbuster films like Uri: The Surgical Strike and Bala, and soon we will get to see her in Ginny Weds Sunny which is slated to release on Netflix.

It was just yesterday when the makers of Bhoot Police announced that Yami and Jacqueline Fernandez have joined the cast of the movie. And today, one more film starring Yami has been announced.


The actress will be seen in a movie titled A Thursday. The film will be produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Premnath Rajagopalan, and it will be directed by Behzad Khambata.

Khambata took to Instagram to make an announcement about the film. He posted, More than the weekend, this time, waiting for #AThursday. Starring @yamigautam, the film will be a direct to digital release. @rsvpmovies #ronniescrewvala @premnathrajagopalan @bluemonkey_film @pashanjal @alobo2112 @mabelrajagopalan @shivahereon #fridayswithrsvp.”

It is a psychological thriller and Yami will be seen playing the role of a playschool teacher who on a Thursday takes 16 children hostage.

While talking to Mid-day, Yami stated, "A Thursday is one of those rare scripts that you just cannot put down. Behzad has written one of the strongest characters for a female protagonist; Naina is both, fierce and endearing.”

The makers are eyeing a digital release for the film next year.
