Yami Gautam Dhar recently travelled to Patna as part of the promotional campaign for her upcoming film Nayyi Navelli. The actress received a warm welcome from fans and also took time out to visit two important religious sites in the city.
During her Patna visit, Yami sought blessings at Patna Sahib Gurudwara and also visited Patna Devi Temple. Her spiritual visit came shortly before the theatrical release of her much-awaited fantasy family entertainer.
The actress was welcomed by fans with dhol beats as she arrived in the city, creating a lively atmosphere around her promotional appearance.
Yami Seeks Blessings at Patna Sahib
One of the highlights of Yami’s Patna visit was her appearance at the historic Patna Sahib Gurudwara.
The actress spent some peaceful time at the religious site, bowed her head in prayer and sought blessings ahead of the release of Nayyi Navelli. Pictures from her visit showed Yami in a traditional green outfit as she offered prayers at the Gurudwara.
Her visit also allowed her to connect with the spiritual and cultural significance of Patna, while expressing gratitude ahead of an important phase for her upcoming film.
She Also Visited Patna Devi Temple
Yami’s spiritual journey in Patna did not end at the Gurudwara. She also visited the famous Patna Devi Temple, where she offered prayers and sought blessings.
According to reports, the actress made these visits during her promotional schedule for Nayyi Navelli. Her temple and Gurudwara visits added a personal and spiritual element to what was otherwise a busy promotional trip.
Yami Gets a Grand Welcome From Fans
Yami Gautam received an enthusiastic reception from fans during her Patna visit.
Crowds gathered to welcome the actress, with dhol beats adding to the celebratory atmosphere. She also interacted with audiences during her promotional engagements and spoke about her upcoming film.
Yami additionally attended the Jagran Film Festival 2026 in Patna, where she interacted with viewers and discussed her work and Nayyi Navelli.
The actress also spoke about the changing landscape for female actors and how audiences are increasingly looking for strong stories and characters rather than limiting actresses to a particular image.
Yami Plays a Mysterious New Bride
Nayyi Navelli will see Yami Gautam in a distinctly different role.
The actress plays Mohini, a newly married woman who enters the Awasthi family. While she initially appears to be the perfect new daughter-in-law, the story gradually introduces questions about her character and the secrets surrounding her.
The film blends fantasy, humour, action and family drama, with elements of Indian folklore playing an important role in the story. Reports have also described Yami’s character as having a supernatural side, making the role different from many of her recent performances.
‘Bhabhi Tabahi’ Shows Yami’s Different Avatar
The film’s promotional campaign has already given audiences a glimpse of Yami’s energetic new avatar.
The song ‘Bhabhi Tabahi’ features a wedding setting and showcases Mohini’s dance skills. During her Patna interaction, Yami revealed that she had to perform multiple dance forms for the song, including bhangra and moonwalk.
She also shared an interesting anecdote about working with director Balaji Mohan, who gave her considerable creative freedom but surprised her by asking her to perform a moonwalk.
When Will Nayyi Navelli Release?
Nayyi Navelli is scheduled to release in cinemas on October 16, 2026, ahead of Dussehra.
The film is directed by Balaji Mohan and written by Himanshu Sharma and Divy Nidhi Sharma. It is produced by Aanand L Rai and Himanshu Sharma, with G. V. Prakash Kumar composing the music. The cast includes Addinath M Kothare, Sunita Rajwar, Mita Vasisth, Aaditya Kulshreshth, Susmita Mukherjee and Prateek Pachori.
Yami Gautam Looks Ahead to the Release
With Nayyi Navelli just days away from its theatrical release, Yami Gautam’s Patna visit has added another memorable chapter to the film’s promotional journey.
From meeting enthusiastic fans to seeking blessings at Patna Sahib Gurudwara and Patna Devi Temple, the actress appeared to be making the most of her time in the city before the film reaches cinemas.
Nayyi Navelli now heads towards its October 16 release, with Yami’s unusual character and the film’s mix of fantasy, humour and family drama expected to be among its biggest attractions.
