Yami Gautam Dhar is set to star in an upcoming fantasy family-drama, Nayyi Navelli, the makers announced on August 19, 2026. Directed by Balaji Mohan, the film is set to be released in theatres on October 16.<\/p>\n
The film\u2019s synopsis reads, \u201cA 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)!\u201d<\/p>\n
It is written by Himanshu Sharma and Divy Nidhi Sharma with music by G. V. Prakash Kumar. The film is produced by Aanand L Rai and Himanshu Sharma.<\/p>\n
Speaking about it, Aanand said in a statement, \u201cNayyi Navelli is the kind of story that surprises you at every turn. When Himanshu and I first discussed the story, we were immediately drawn to the unique way it brings together families for a fantasy, humour and adventure-filled experience. Yami Gautam Dhar was an instinctive choice, bringing exactly the warmth and mischief the character demands.\u201d<\/p>\n
