Yami Gautam's film "Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga" has completed two years since its release on Netflix, and the whodunnit murder mystery, the suspense thriller became the most viewed Indian film on Netflix  for 2023. A success that has Yami written all over it and brought yet another side of Yami to us. 

Celebrating her character today, Yami played the role of Neha Grover, a flight attendant, who gets entangled in a diamond heist and a hijacking plot. The film received fantastic feedback from the audience, with many praising Yami's performance- from critics to audience alike. She nailed the flight attendant look with a crisp uniform, sleek hair, and confident demeanor. Her poised yet intense presence added depth to her intriguing character.

Here’s revisiting what the actress penned down when her ‘Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga’ became the most seen film of the year 2023  on the digital platform Netflix, as per the list released by the giant itself. And reacting to the feat, the actress penned a note on Instagram. She wrote- “Your love and support is my driving force! The success of ‘A Thursday’ last year and now ‘Chor Nikal Ke Bhaaga’ and ‘OMG 2’ inspires me to fearlessly venture into new and exciting stories. Gratitude!”

Very few actors manage to break the mold and consistently prove their versatility, but Yami Gautam's meteoric rise in the last five years stands as a testament to her exceptional talent and resilience where A Thursday, Lost, Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga, OMG 2, Article 370 & now Dhoom Dhoom proved to be a success streak like no other. 

From playing the charming girl in a pure entertainer to leading intense, character-driven stories, Gautam has truly made her mark, becoming one of the most bankable stars in the industry - but the last 5 years have us an actress who became the principal protagonist, in hits that truly can be attributed to her. Anyone could have played but Yami fitting like a glove and more so, headlining these projects to success across platforms is a stand-out quality.

This shift in her career trajectory highlights her transformation into a creative powerhouse, one capable of leading impactful cinema both artistically and commercially with Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga, an integral part of her unique body of work. Well, the rumours are rife that the platform is set to bring back season two - a franchise that promises fun and great storyline!
