Yami Gautam Dhar opens up about the challenges of motherhood in a recent interview, highlighting the importance of family support and spirituality in her life.
GlipzoIn a recent interview with Grazia India, actress Yami Gautam Dhar shared her heartfelt thoughts on navigating the journey of motherhood while pursuing her career in acting. The candid conversation provided a glimpse into her personal life and the balancing act many working parents face today.
Yami, known for her remarkable performances in Bollywood, expressed her deep appreciation for the support she receives from her family as she embarks on this new chapter of her life. She emphasized the vital role that a strong support system plays, stating, "It’s because of the support system I have; it would have been difficult otherwise. We need help, there’s no denial in that, but we must acknowledge it, and when that help is given, there’s nobody else than your own family. I’m very grateful to my mother because that’s how I can do what I do.”
Yami reflected on the emotional weight of raising a young child, especially in a demanding profession like acting. She shared her thoughts on how difficult it can be to find a safe environment for a child when both parents are working. "With a baby so young, even a set is not the right place, perhaps for a child. It’s literally your heart outside your body, and who do you trust with your heart when both parents are working?"
Her husband, Aditya Dhar, a filmmaker, has recently had his own successes, allowing him to take on more parental responsibilities. Yami noted, "Right now, I’m working, and Aditya’s just had both the releases, so now he can be with Vedavid." This collaborative approach highlights the importance of teamwork in parenting, particularly when both partners have demanding careers.
The actress emphasized that both her and Aditya's families play a crucial role in helping them navigate the complexities of parenthood. "Of course, our families are there, so we figure this out together. You can’t fully plan this, you have to go with the flow, keeping in mind that the biggest priority in life forever will be your child, your parents and your family," she explained.
Yami also shared insights into her relationship with Aditya, noting that their core values remain steadfast despite the changes they face in life. She described him as "very unaffected and extremely humble," and praised the strength of their bond that has only grown over time.
In a deeper reflection, Yami spoke about the importance of spirituality in both their lives, particularly during challenging times. "There are highs and lows and vulnerable phases, but it’s not like during that phase we expressed our frustration or let it out. Both of us are extremely thankful to God; for us, spirituality is very important, we believe in the Almighty. Good things happen to good people. What’s meant for you may be delayed but never denied.”
This perspective not only illustrates their resilience but also showcases how deeply their faith and values influence their approach to both personal and professional challenges.
On the professional front, Yami's career continues to thrive. She was recently seen in a prominent role in Haq and made a cameo appearance in Dhurandhar The Revenge, directed by her husband, Aditya Dhar. Fans are eagerly anticipating her upcoming project, the horror-comedy Nayyi Navelli, which promises to showcase her versatility as an actress.
As she continues to balance her acting career with the joys and challenges of motherhood, Yami Gautam Dhar stands as a testament to modern working parents who strive to maintain their professional aspirations while nurturing their families.
