'Validation from audience makes me confident'
Yami received immense love and appreciation from the audience for Uri, and it’s more important to her than any crore club
Mumbai: Yami Gautam says appreciation from the audience makes her feel validated, not the numbers at the box office.
The 30-year-old actor, whose latest release Uri: The Surgical Strike has minted over Rs 100 crores at the ticket window, said since her Bollywood debut with Vicky Donor her aim has been to play memorable roles.
"Validation from the audience makes me really confident. It is more important to me than any crore club. If my audience is happy with my performance, I feel really content."
"But the validation I received post "Uri..." was something different. It has certainly made things better for me," said Yami.
The actor was talking on the sidelines of an ongoing Fashion Week. Yami, who tripped a few times during her walk on the runway courtesy her flowy nude tulle dress, said for her, the idea of power dressing is about feeling comfortable.
"Power dressing is something I don't consciously think about. I believe any garment which makes you comfortable and confident, makes you feel powerful. And the rest comes from within. It also depends a lot on the mood," she said.
