There
comes
a
time
in
every
actor’s
life
wherein
one
of
their
performances
strikes
an
emotional
chord.
Something
similar
has
happened
with
versatile
actor
Yami
Gautam.
On
the
occasion
of
International
Women’s
Day,
Yami
makes
a
humble
appeal
to
help
end
sexual
violence
by
writing
an
open
letter.
Taking
to
her
social
media,
the
actress
shared
the
note.
The
actress
scored
rave
reviews
for
her
spectacular
performance
in
her
latest
hostage
thriller
–
A
Thursday.
Yami
played
the
role
of
a
playschool
teacher
who
takes
13
children
hostage
holding
the
city
for
ransom.
As
the
story
progresses,
it
is
revealed
that
her
character
has
suffered
sexual
abuse
as
a
minor.
Yami
deeply
connected
with
the
subject
of
this
movie
and
raised
awareness
about
this
social
issue.
Doing
so,
the
actress
had
joined
hands
with
two
NGO’s
that
work
towards
empowering
women
and
rehabilitating
women
who
have
suffered
sexual
abuse.
This
is
truly
a
noble
step
to
assist
the
ones
who
have
suffered
abuse.
With
such
a
fantastic
step,
Yami
has
set
an
example
for
all
of
us
on
how
we
too
can
step
forward
and
contribute
to
make
this
world
a
better
place
for
all
of
us.
Yami’s
interesting
line
up
includes
‘Dasvi’
alongside
Abhishek
Bachchan
and
Nimrat
Kaur
and
OMG
2
featuring
Akshay
Kumar
and
Pankaj
Tripathy
and
a
few
unannounced
projects.
