Her father is a director in the Punjabi film industry, but Yami never featured in his movies. However, her journey towards climbing the ladder of success was not that easy. She played the lead role in a television show Yeh Pyar Na Hoga Kam that aired on television. She took the ball in her court after she featured in a reality show named Meethi Choori No 1. It was then reported that Shoojit Sircar was over-whelmed by Yami’s performance in the reality show and signed her for his film Vicky Donor, which happened to be Yami’s first Bollywood debut. Vicky Donor was the highest-grossing film during the year of its release.
