'It’s Just Mutual Respect': Yami Gautam Talks About Her Bond With Kangana Ranaut
For Yami Gautam, "anyone who treats you with respect and love must be embraced back," and Kangana Ranaut certainly fits that bill.
New Delhi: Even though actress Kangana Ranaut hardly gets along with anybody in Bollywood, there are a few who are impressed by the actress. Yami Gautam is among them. Yami praised Kangana in a recent interview. The actress also said that Kangana had asked her to her house in Manali at the time they were both shooting there.
For Yami Gautam, "anyone who treats you with respect and love must be embraced back," and Kangana Ranaut certainly fits that bill.
In an interview with DNA, Yami reveals that she and Kangana have been friends since the latter tweeted her congratulations on her wedding some years ago. She said, “I think it comes from the fact that we hail from the same state and of course, she is a fantastic actress. She is one of the best we have. For me, the first way of admiration will always be work whether it is Kangana or Vidya or so many other actresses. And then the fact that she wished me on my wedding.”
Yami further said that the two had never met informally but once Kangana invited her to her house in Manali. “We were shooting for Chor (Chor Nikal Ke Bhaaga) in Manali. It was a two-day shoot and my mom was with me. Very sweetly, she messaged me to visit her home, but we couldn’t because of erratic shoot hours. It’s just mutual respect and I feel anyone who treats you with respect and love must be embraced back. Looking forward to her next film and next work because her work speaks for itself,” said Yami.
This week, Yami was featured in ‘Lost’, a thriller directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury. The movie is available to watch on Zee5. She next appears in ‘Chor Nikal Ke Bhaaga’, a Netflix thriller comedy co-starring Sunny Kaushal and Sharad Kelkar. On March 24, the movie will finally hit theatres.
Meanwhile, Kangana has wrapped filming on her film ‘Emergency’, in which she plays former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. This will be her debut as a feature film director.
