Yami Gautam Dhar and Aditya Dhar first met on the set of Uri: The Surgical Strike in 2019. After keeping their courtship hidden from public view, the pair surprised fans by sharing images of their intimate wedding on June 4, 2021.
On February 8, this year, during the trailer release event for her forthcoming film Article 370, she revealed that she is five and a half months pregnant. She went on to add that she discovered she was pregnant while filming a film her husband was producing.
In an interview with the well-known news website, Yami reveals her pregnancy and laughs as she describes how she has ‘lost count’ of the various emotional ‘bubbles’ that have appeared in her head. . “It feels really good and so empowering. Motherhood gives you a different kind of confidence and power. I’ve been working and have been independent all my life, and all those things are there. But I suddenly feel so special. Something has changed in me, and that change is for good. I feel like I’ve developed a different perspective on things.”
According to Yami, the only thing her loved ones have complained about is the lack of sleep she has been getting during her pregnancy. Talking about it, she explains, “My mind is constantly working. People around me are telling me that I should get as much sleep as I can now since I won’t have time once the kid arrives. But how will I get that much sleep? “I can only sleep so much (laughs).”
Her impending motherhood has also caused her to reflect on her past and comprehend the genuine nature of parenting. “The entire reel of how I’ve been as a baby is coming alive before me. I’ve realised that nature makes no mistake, and it’s us who falter. It’s so beautiful that a life is growing inside of me. There’s another heartbeat nurturing inside me, and how that soul is connected to me—listening to me and feeling through me—is incredible. I had heard about these things, but experiencing them is very different,” the actress elaborated.
While many women become sensitive and overly emotional during pregnancy, Yami focuses on keeping positive and stress-free. “Being over-emotional during pregnancy is real. So, I’m not endorsing curbing one’s feelings; it’s also about getting control over them and knowing what’s good for me and my baby. My emotions might always be on the surface, but is that good for me and my baby? I don’t know. I prefer to be happy, eat well, and have my family and people I love and feel comfortable with around me,” she stated.
She continues, “If someone is making me uncomfortable, I’ve got all the right to excuse myself. It’s a very special time, and it should be enjoyed in the best possible way. Life is anyway complicated, but pregnancy is a blessed time, and I don’t want to overthink anything and just concentrate on mujhe kya khaana hai, kya dekhna hai, aur kisse baat karni hai.”
