Yami Gautam to play a journalist in Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury’s next film

Yami Gautam, who recently got hitched to Uri - The Surgical Strike director Aditya Dhar, is currently enjoying her newly marital phase. However, the actress will be back to work now.

According to a report, the actress will soon resume shoot for director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury's next untitled film. Yami is reportedly playing the role of a journalist and the script will be based out in Kolkata. The film was all prepared to begin with its schedule in May. However, with the second wave of Covid-19, plans were paused. Now, as the situation has become better and the government has given permission for shoots with protocols in place, Aniruddha has planned to begin with the shoot in Kolkata and Purulia.

The source also adds that the film will explore the crimes in journalism that sometimes go neglected and that Yami loved the script right at the time of narration itself. She will play a journalist who will guide the anecdote ahead. From the past few months, Yami is extremely invested in the project and had plenty of Zoom calls to discuss with the director to understand the finer details of the story.
