It seems Yami Gautam has landed herself in a legal tussle. Earlier today, the Bollywood actress was summoned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). She has been asked to appear before the agency next week to record her statement in connection with alleged irregularities that have been found in her bank account under FEMA (Foreign Exchange Management Act).
According to reports, the Enforcement Directorate has found information regarding foreign exchange transactions amounting to Rs 1.5 crore in Yami’s bank account. Apparently, this is the second time that Yami has been summoned by the ED. The actress is yet to make a statement regarding the same.
Yami was recently in news in connection with her wedding to URI director Aditya Dhar. The couple surprised their fans as they tied the knot in an intimate ceremony and then informed all on social media.
Yami started her Bollywood career with the hit film Vicky Donor in 2012 and received praise for her authentic and effortless performance of a woman whose husband is a sperm donor. She later went on to work in notable films like Badlapur (2015) with Varun Dhawan, Kaabil (2017) with Hrithik Roshan, Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019) with Vicky Kaushal and Bala (2019) with Ayushmann Khurrana, among others.
Currently, the actress has five films in her kitty. She will be seen in Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury’s Faraar, which is based on crime journalism, Bhoot Police with Saif Ali Khan, Dasvi, which has Abhishek Bachchan as the male lead, A Thursday, in which she plays a school teacher, and an unannounced film, as confirmed by her publicist.
