Did you get paid for that cameo, or did your husband say, ‘Please, babe, just do it for me’?” Madhuri asked.Laughing at the question, Yami replied, “I think some things are priceless. Aditya had said, ‘Please come to my set. I want you to bring good luck to my set.’ For me, getting the opportunity to work under the direction of one of the finest directors in the country was itself my fee. When I heard the news that I had received a hefty cheque for the cameo, I was surprised myself. For me, working with such an outstanding director was the real reward.”Yami Gautam made a special cameo in her husband Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller Dhurandhar: The Revenge, which went on to become a major blockbuster.The actress played Shazia Bano, a nurse who is later revealed to be an undercover Indian agent operating in Pakistan.
