Yami Gautam says National Award win added responsibility
Yami Gautam has said winning the National Film Award for Best Actress for ‘Article 370’ has added a sense of responsibility. Speaking at the trailer launch of her upcoming film ‘Nayyi Navelli’, she said she would be lying if she claimed nothing had changed.
The actress said the award is a huge honour and a validation for artists across all languages and formats. She added she still has a lot to learn and will try to push herself to be more diverse and work harder.
Asked by Bollywood Hungama whether she was now aiming for an Oscar, Yami said one’s dreams should be known only to oneself and that she believes in letting her work speak. ‘Nayyi Navelli’ releases in cinemas on 16 October.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both NDTV and Bollywood Hungama covered the same quotes from Yami Gautam at the trailer launch, with uniform framing: the actress acknowledged greater responsibility after her National Award win. Bollywood Hungama added the Oscar question and Yami’s reply about keeping dreams private, which NDTV omitted. Neither outlet reported any controversy or criticism, making the coverage straight news reporting on Yami’s statements. The only difference is that Bollywood Hungama sought a forward-looking angle on international ambitions, while NDTV stayed closer to the award’s domestic significance. Both report the film’s 16 October release.
