Yami Gautam reacts to ‘extremely disrespectful’ review of performance in Dasvi
Yami Gautam has strongly responded to a review of her latest release Dasvi. The movie, which also features Abhishek Bachchan and Nimrat Kaur, was released on Netflix and Jio Cinema on Thursday, April 7. Yami plays a cop in Dasvi, a social comedy that highlights the importance of education.
She was responding to a review by Film Companion. The actress shared a screenshot of part of the review, which read, “Yami Gautam is no longer the dead girlfriend in Hindi films, but the combative smile is starting to get repetitive.”
Before I say anything else, I’d like to say that I usually take constructive criticism in my stride. But when a certain platform keeps trying to pull you down consistently, I felt it necessary to speak up about it. https://t.co/GGczNekBhP pic.twitter.com/wdBYXyv47V

Responding to the comment in a Twitter thread, Yami wrote, “Before I say anything else, I’d like to say that I usually take constructive criticism in my stride. But when a certain platform keeps trying to pull you down consistently, I felt it necessary to speak up about it. My recent films & performances include A Thursday, Bala, Uri etc. & yet this is qualified as a ‘review’ of my work! It’s extremely disrespectful!”
She added, “It takes years of hard work for anyone & especially a self-made actor like me to keep proving our mettle again & again with every opportunity. This is what it comes down to from certain reputed portals! It’s heartbreaking since I did look up to @FilmCompanion once upon a time, like many of us, but I don’t seek that since long now! I would request you not to ‘review’ my performance henceforth ! I’ll find grace in that & it’ll be less painful.”
