Aditya Dhar is currently experiencing new heights in his career after his movie Dhurandhar turned out to be a blockbuster hit. The director rose to stardom with his most celebrated movie, Uri: The Surgical Strike. The film not only changed the course of his career but also sparked a beautiful love story with actress Yami Gautam. Recently, Yami opened up about the moment she fell for Aditya and recalled their beautiful love story. The actress also revealed the true personality of Aditya and praised his composed nature.
Uri: The Surgical Strike fame Yami Gautam recently opened up about her love story during her interview with Humans of Bombay and said, "Aditya and I are extremely similar when it comes to work. We love to work and we just come back to a regular family at home. We are never like, 'We need to go out, it is necessary.' I obviously met him while working on Uri, but it was during the promotions of the film when we 'talked-talked' because there were five of us promoting the film and each question would be passed on to everybody. You are listening to all the questions and answers and then there is suddenly one similar answer, you match the wavelength."

Yami did not shy away from praising her husband and said, "I have to say this not just as a wife but as an artist who has worked with him, he is one of the most respected directors and you can ask anybody from any of his films, the way he commands-notdemands-commands respect is phenomenal. Shooting is an extremely stressful business, and a director's job, whatever is said and done, becomes about management as well."
Talking about his even-tempered nature, Yami added, "One of the most commendable things about Adtiya is that I have never seen him lose his cool. I still have no idea how he manages everything with that calm demeanour. He is extremely patient as a person and very solution-oriented, both as a director and in real life. Looking at all, even during Uri, I had a lot of respect for him."
The actress further described how their relationship grew and stated, "During promotions, we started talking and became friends. There was no ‘I am going to propose to you’ kind of moment, no filmy things, which was the best thing because I am not that kind of person. We just knew we wanted to get married. Our families were extremely aligned and they were really happy for us."
