Yamini Malhotra’s journey to stardom wasn’t overnight. She was a contestant on Bigg Boss 18, and it was this reality TV show that gave her the break she needed. Now, she’s all set to make her Bollywood debut with the film “Chil Mar Na Bro”.
A New Role to Shine In
Yamini plays a girl from Delhi who comes to Mumbai to pursue acting. The film is a comedy, reminiscent of the kind of movies like Hera Pheri. Yamini’s character is part of a story that brings back the fun of that era. The shoot is happening at Mud Island, and she’s getting guidance from the entire cast, including Upasana Singh. Yamini says they’ve all been very helpful, having noticed her during her time on Bigg Boss. The experience on the show was a turning point for her, and she’s grateful for the opportunities it’s brought.
Life After Bigg Boss
Yamini was a wild card entry on the show, which meant she had limited time to make an impact. Still, she’s received offers for South Indian films, but she’s choosing to focus on Hindi projects for now. Being on Bigg Boss was a wild ride, with tasks and situations that often led to conflicts. Yamini clarifies that while there are no scripts, the show’s creators do try to stir up drama. As a relatively new face, Yamini wasn’t part of any pre-existing groups or friendships on the show. She had to make her own way, often inserting herself into conversations.
A Lucky Break
Yamini considers herself lucky, having faced minimal struggles in her career. She’s had the flexibility to switch between her two professions – dentistry and acting. Sometimes, she gets sudden calls for work, and other times, she takes a break. When asked about her relationship status, Yamini says she’s not really thinking about it right now. Being on Bigg Boss made her realize she doesn’t need a partner. Her focus is on her professional life, and she’s not considering marriage or a boyfriend at the moment. For now, her priority is her career, and she’s enjoying the ride.
