It is no secret that Yami Gautam is one of the most talented actresses in the country today. Over the years, the star has proved her mettle in commercial films as well as author-backed projects. However, fans of the actress have often maintained that Yami Gautam deserves a wider audience. Now, after her stellar performance in OMG 2, this chatter has only gained momentum. On X [ previously known as Twitter], a fan said that she is under-utilised by filmmakers. In response, Yami Gautam said that she only knows how to act and that is what she chooses to focus on.

Offering fans an insight into her work ethic, which she swears by, Yami Gautam said, “Some people find success overnight, some people have to prove themselves persistently for years. Some people are great at marketing their talent (or lack of it), some people only want their talent to speak.
Speaking about what she chooses to focus on, Yami Gautam said, “As an actor, I just know how to act and work exceptionally hard on identifying good scripts and versatile characters, that's my talent. I don't understand or get involved much with the marketing of my talent. Unfortunately for the majority of our industry, everything relies on marketing a person or project and not on the depth of a script or character.”
Acknowledging the fan message, Yami Gautam added, “Maybe that's the reason why people feel I am under-utilised. Anyways, Thanks so much Aavishkar for your kind words, it's truly very encouraging. I will get there eventually, slowly but steadily, one film at a time.”
The fan's original message said, “It's amazing how every time Yami Gautam manages to SURPRISE us with her performance! #OMG2 is no exception. She owns every frame she's in! Even her silence speaks a lot. I hate the term ‘underrated'. I'd just say she's under-utilised by our filmmakers.”
