Mumbai, 14 October (H.S.):

Actress Yami Gautam is all set to appear in a completely new avatar in her upcoming horror-comedy film ‘Nayyi Navelli’. She will portray Mohini, a bubbly and mischievous bride whose lively personality sets her apart from the characters she has played so far.

According to Yami, the role is quite different from her previous performances and gives her an opportunity to showcase her natural, fun-loving and carefree side. The film is directed by Balaji Mohan, with G. V. Prakash Kumar composing the music and Vijay Ganguly choreographing the songs.

Set in Meerut, the film revolves around Mohini, who appears to be the perfect bride on the outside but harbours a supernatural secret. Inspired by Indian mythology, this mysterious element adds intriguing twists and turns to the narrative.

The screenplay has been written by Himanshu Sharma and Divya Nidhi Sharma. The film is being produced by Aanand L. Rai and Himanshu Sharma under their banner, Colour Yellow Productions. With this project, Colour Yellow Productions is collaborating with Amazon MGM Studios for the first time.

‘Nayyi Navelli’ promises a compelling blend of horror, humour and mystery, with unexpected developments designed to keep audiences engaged and entertained.

Over the past few years, Yami Gautam has demonstrated her acting versatility through serious roles in films such as ‘Article 370’ and ‘Haq’. She also recently appeared in a brief role in ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’. With ‘Nayyi Navelli’, the actress is preparing to explore a different facet of her on-screen persona, embracing a more playful and mischievous character.
