Yami Gautam recollects funny incident from early days in theatre which left the room in splits

MUMBAI: Bollywood actress Yami Gautam, who is fresh off the success of her recent film ‘Haq’, has recollected an incident from her early days in theatre when she went horribly wrong with the lines yet made a solid impact.

The actress spoke with IANS during the promotions of ‘Haq’, and shared how she delivered a line in a very unusual way that left the room in splits.

She told IANS, “I remember there was a new theater teacher at school, and theater was just being introduced. There was a line that I still remember, ‘Keep still, you little devil, or I will slit your throat’. Now there were 35 of us, the students, and everyone had to say their lines in their own way, and then it would be your turn again. I said it in such a weird way once that everyone burst out laughing. I was being very serious on my part. She was like, ‘You sounded like a street, like a pocket man’. I said, ‘I don’t know what else to do, but at least you remember my lines. I gave it a shot’”.
