There’s a reason why everyone is talking about Yami Gautam after HAQ. Not only because she has given a strong performance, but also because now she is finally being seen in the form that she has always deserved.
Yami lives her character completely in HAQ. Every glance, every pause feels genuine. There is a quiet intensity within them that draws you in; She doesn’t demand your attention, but takes it easily. Such work seems rare these days—honest, unhurried, and deeply felt. It is not surprising that many people are saying that she deserves the National Award.
What makes it even more special is the naturalness of this moment. Yami has not reached here suddenly. It’s been a steady, gradual journey—with films like Vicky Donor, Badlapur, Uri, Bala, A Thursday, and Article 370, where each role has added a new layer to his craft. You can feel the confidence that comes from someone who has learned in public but grown in private.
And now with HAQ, she ends the year on a high. Not a loud, noisy one, but one that leaves an echo. Performances that stay with you long after it’s over, that make you think about them even after the movie is over.
There is something very rare about Yami. She reminds that an actor does not need to make noise to be heard. That determination can also be calm. And the power is also stable.
