Yami Gautam shares secrets to balancing work and motherhood

On May 10, 2024, Yami Gautam and her husband, director Aditya Dhar, celebrated the arrival of their first child, a baby boy named Vedavid. Since that day, Yami has been sharing her experiences as a mother. Recently, during the trailer preview of her upcoming Netflix film 'Dhoom Dhaam', she discussed balancing work and parenting.

Yami said, "So, our parents look after our baby when we are working. It is the most important thing for us. If we are able to work today, putting our hearts out here, then it is because we trust our parents. My mother is still taking care of me and helps us take care of the next generation. So once a parent is always a parent, a never-ending job till your last breath."

The actress further added, "See we are working parents. I am a working mother. There is nothing bad about this. When it comes to women we are capable of doing much more than we can think. But of course, your family is there. The duty of the family is to provide support and the whole idea of having an institution as a family is that it supports you, cushions you."

"Always as a mother in the back of my mind or as a father will be safety. If he is okay or not and other things. But we have work too. If I have committed something or if I have some film lined up then I will do it. I am sitting here as a committed professional. I have to do my job right and then I go back home", she concluded.

'Dhoom Dhaam', directed by Rishab Seth and produced by Aditya Dhar, Lokesh Dhar of B62 Studios, and Jyoti Deshpande of Jio Studios, follows newlyweds Koyal (Yami Gautam) and Veer (Pratik Gandhi) as their wedding night takes an unexpected turn filled with deception and surprises. The film premieres on Netflix on February 14, 2025.
