Yami, who plays a flight attendant in heist-hijack thriller Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga, recalls how an evacuation scene drained her emotionally

Yami Gautam
When Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga came her way, Yami Gautam was as excited about the prospect of playing a flight attendant as she was about the fast-paced story. To prep for the role, the actor did a string of sessions with a flight attendant that helped her understand the challenges faced by cabin crews on a daily basis. “I admire air hostesses for their courage, and showing up to work every day with an infectious smile, despite being acutely aware of the mishaps that could occur. There was a lot of emotional and physical prep that went into being Neha Grover,” says Gautam, who, along with Sunny Kaushal, leads the Netflix thriller.
