It wasn’t easy as it took 3 hours for me to get into this look and 45 mins to get out of it, each day, shooting bare feet & with cable work, throughout the chilly nights in Himachal,” she wrote alongside the post.
Yami added: “Despite my neck injury, I wanted to do everything myself, and my Yoga practice helped me to achieve it to a great extent. Although, I wish I could take some professional training but the pandemic restrictions made it impossible at that time.”
The actress, who is married to filmmaker Aditya Dhar, said she did whatever best she could on the set.
“These are a part of the challenges that come along with the profession I love so much! And I will do it again and again! Thank you for giving me so much love, again and making the pain seem absolutely worth it!” she concluded.
