Yami makes her digital debut

The digital platform is no longer an alien medium for Bollywood actors and film-makers. An increasing number of actors are willingly experimenting with the space. Now, Yami Gautam is all set to make her debut on the digital platform. She will soon be seen on the show Son of Abish as a guest. “One of the most sought-after, popular chat shows in the digital world, hosted by ace comedian Abish Mathew, is all set to open its third season with Yami as the first guest on the show. It would be Yami’s first stint on the digital platform — however, just for an episode,” says a source close to Yami. “The actor will be accompanied by another guest, Kenny Sebastian, who’s a known name in the stand-up comedy circuit. Till date, Yami has never been a part of any show in the digital format and, therefore, this was an opportunity that she didn’t want to let go of. She found it apt to make her first digital appearance on this show.” When contacted, Yami said, “Shooting for Abish’s show was an incredible experience. There wasn’t a single dull moment during the shoot for the episode. Personally, I think the digital platform is extremely transparent as the feedback is almost instant. People connect with you directly , as there’s real-time interaction with the content. And today, some of the best formats and content are available in the digital world. It’s an exciting time for the entertainment business.”
