Be it OTT or the theaters, the current trend shows that the Bollywood divas are doing exceedingly well when it comes to doing versatile roles and entertaining the audience. Deepika Padukone’s Gehraiyaan released last month on the OTT received an overwhelming response and loads of appreciation while Alia Bhatt’s Gangubai Kathiawadi opened to a huge number in the theaters last week.
Madhuri Dixit too debuted on OTT last week with The Fame Game and once again proved that she continues to be the reigning queen of Bollywood. One more Bollywood actress-Yami Gautam whose OTT drama A Thursday was released in mid-February has done a wonderful job in the lead role. However, her work and the thriller did not get the kind of notice, hype, and appreciation that the other three projects of Deepika, Alia, and Madhuri received.
Just one correction.

Four heroines!@aliaa08 she's outstanding as #GangubaiKathiawadi@deepikapadukone nailed it as Alisha in #Gehraiyaan@MadhuriDixit was amazing in #TheFameGame
And @yamigautam
She was also fantastic in #AThursday
Women are clearly ruling the roost. https://t.co/f8Otqojhi8
Yami has done a wonderful job in A Thursday and none other than Kangana Ranaut praised Yami for her acting in the suspense thriller. As is a practice even the leading tabloids and magazines from the entertainment field focus only on the A-listers and their project whereas others with no Godfather or connection are barely noticed.
The same thing seems to have happened with Yami time and again. Earlier it was reported that Karan Johar wanted Hrithik Roshan on his talk show Koffee With Karan. At that time Duggu was working with Yami for Kareeb and wanted his co-star to accompany him on the show, but Karan refused to accept Yami’s presence on the show. And now once again, the media seems to have been unfair with Yami as it has failed to give the Uri: The Surgical Strike actress the due credit she deserves.
Thank you, Nayan:) But my experience guides me not to have expectations from a certain section of media at all. As a newcomer, I used to wish for this acknowledgement but then you realise it’s much more than that here. I am a hustler & shall keep hustling, forever, with respect https://t.co/WlMSBOZv5L

When a fan pointed out that Yami Gautam should be included along with Deepika, Alia, and Madhuri as the leading ladies who were successful in the last couple of weeks, the Badlapur actress promptly replied that her experience has made her not expect anything from a certain section of media and that she has been a hustler and will continue to be the one always.
