HT Brunch Cover Story: What makes Yami and Surilie Gautam soul sisters
Quarantined in different cities, these siblings have turned their separation anxiety into a big party, and you can too!
For actors and sisters Yami and Surilie Gautam, ‘home’ is always where the other sister is. Sure, film commitments mean they are often separated – Surilie works in the Punjabi film industry and must often return to her home state to shoot, promote films and so on. But the women have lived together in Mumbai since 2016, and have never been separated for a prolonged period of time.


“I hope the lockdown teaches us to preserve our resources and value things, especially kitchen essentials!” –Yami Gautam
“Yami has just starting cooking. So when I meet her, I am going to send her directly to the kitchen to cook me something. After all, the proof of the pudding is in the eating!” – Surilie Gautam
“She is forever making laddoos and I missed them. So I made them myself” –Yami Gautam


“We are the fun factor in each other’s lives; we are our own detox pills!”
– Surilie Gautam

“I’m trying not to think ‘Oh, I am all alone.” I am blessed that we are all safe and are having decent meals. This too shall pass.” –Yami Gautam
