Uri: The Surgical Strike is still very much on people's mind, and everyone, right from Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar and Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman have been asking India 'How's the josh?' Yami Gautam, who played the role of an intelligence officer in the film, said that her 'josh' (passion) is always very high.

While walking the ramp for Gauri & Nainika at the Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2019, Yami told IANS, "My 'josh' is always very high. That's what has kept me going." The Vicky Donor actress tripped and slipped multiple times on the ramp due to her superfluous tulle gown, but not once did she let go of her confidence.

When asked where this confidence comes from, she said, "It just comes from the fact that you can know it can happen with anyone. I am not the first one. Even if you have seen anywhere internationally, these things do happen. The whole point is that whether in life or on the ramp, the show must go on."

All the praise and adulation Yami has got for her excellent performance in Uri has made her feel grateful. She added, "Be it a six-year-old kid to a 90-year-old, it's great how everyone has connected with the film and the kind of messages that we are getting, the videos that have come our way and the 'josh' that the entire country is feeling. I will never forget Uri..."

At one point, critics had pointed out the jingoism associated with films like Uri, but Yami said that that's not the case anymore. While there were certain questions before the film released, the same people who had been asking those questions said that there was nothing of the sort.
