Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 10 (ANI): The teaser for actor Yami Gautam Dhar-starrer ‘Nayyi Navelli’ was released on Thursday, giving a first look at the upcoming fantasy family entertainer.
Yami will play the role of a bride who appears to be a witch. "A picture-perfect bride transforms a chaotic Meerut household into paradise, only for her brother-in-law to suspect that his seemingly ideal sister-in-law may actually be a daayan (witch)!" reads the logline of the film, according to the press note.
The teaser, unveiled on Thursday, introduces a family where things take an unexpected turn after the brother-in-law makes an unusual accusation, saying, “bhabhi daayan hai” (sister-in-law is a witch).
What follows is a mix of family drama, humour, fantasy and action, with strange situations and unusual characters entering the story. Yami is seen in a new avatar, though the teaser keeps the details of her character under wraps.
